Green Valley Botanical Garden : Zamioculcas zamiifolia (Z Z plant)black version

Zamioculcas (common names Zanzibar gem, ZZ plant, Zuzu plant, aroid palm, eternity plant or emerald palm[2]) is a genus of flowering plant in the family Araceae, containing the single species Zamioculcas zamiifolia. It is a herbaceous plant growing to 45–60 centimetres (17.7–23.6 in) tall, from a stout underground, succulent rhizome. It is normally evergreen, but becomes deciduous during drought, surviving drought due to the large potato-like rhizome that stores water until rainfall resumes.
