Propagating ZZ plants is super easy, in fact i would say that propagating zz plants is just as easy as propagating succulents! You can take just about any portion of this plant for your propagation including the leaves, stems (petiole), and rhizome division. ZZ Plants are great to have in the house because they are almost bulletproof and require very little light or water to thrive.

I got a ZZ from someone else who propagated it it back in May 2021 (7 months ago) It has produced new Rhizomes but no stem/leaf growth yet. Any tips on how to get it going, or is this normal?

@laurieudall4159 2 года назад

I've asked a couple of plant people (at local nurseries) why there's a small leaf sticking out half way at the base of my ZZ plant. No one explained like this video did, that it was propagated by a leaf, and that's the remainder of it. Wow! thanks for answering a question I've had ever since I purchased my 1st ZZ plant over a year ago!

@ExpeditionHomestead 2 года назад

It’s always those little curiosities that get the best of me too 😂 thank you so much for watching, I hope you have a great day and hope to hear from you again soon’

@AraceaeFanatics 2 года назад

Because at places like Home Depot, Lowe's, or Walmart and some small nurseries, the people working there aren't plant people. They don't know the answers to your questions. A lot of times, a vendor brings the plants in and they're just a barcode to those selling them. Sometimes they know the names, and often they're incorrect. So if you want to know something about the plants you're interested in, you need to find a local grower, or a large nursery where these plants come from.

@crystalwarning3796 4 года назад

I just want to thank you for the series on propagating ZZ plants. My favorite, most meaningful and longest living plant was getting far too large and unwieldy so I cut it and used your tips to grow new roots/bulbs. It worked! After three months I repotted it and it is doing great. Thanks again!

@ifty_e 3 месяца назад

Thanks for mentioning to keep the water clean, I changed mine almost everyday because one of the containers kept having some white furry growth on the cutting edge. It really helps, the other container's ZZ plant has roots about 2cm now! 🥰 Took it a month, also I put a pothos cutting together with it because I read that helps speed up the process. Anyway thanks again for this video!! 👍

Question, sorry if I missed it in the video: how long do I keep the soil moist after to transfer it to soil? I know they like to be dry but I have to keep it moist for a time so the roots can develop.

@AraceaeFanatics 2 года назад

Unfortunately your question wasn't answered when you asked it, and after a year I'd imagine you either had success or a failure. When transferring any plant from water to soil, it's best to water about every other day for the first week and a half to 2 weeks, depending on how well draining the soil is, the heat where the plant is, and the surrounding humidity. For anyone else who might have this question.

@anthonylewis62 5 лет назад

@PhxDesertGal 4 года назад

I was told at the store not to put it in the sunlight. They said my AZ room would be ok as it is shady all the time. Also it can take temps up to 90 but in the sun it can be over 120, It gets pretty hot in the AZ room at least 100 or more so I hope it survives.
