The ZZ plant, short for Zamioculcas Zamiifolia, also known as a Zamia, is one of the easiest plants to care for. It thrives on neglect, hates to be overwatered and can tolerate low light situations or thrive in bright indirect light.  It is a great focal point plant.

LIGHT AND TEMPERATURE:  Can tolerate low to bright light and prefers warmer temperatures, keep away from cold drafts in winter.

WATER:  Allow soil to dry out between waterings, may only need water once a month, especially in winter.

FERTILIZER:  Rarely, in summer only.
