SCIENTIFIC NAME: Zamioculcas zamiifolia 'Emerald Palm'

KNOWN AS: Emerald Palm ZZ, Upright Zanzibar Gem

CLIMATE (LOCATION): Eastern Africa | Drought-Prone Forests & Savannas

DESCRIPTION: This specific cultivar is selected for its ultra-glossy, thick, dark-emerald foliage and its incredibly strong, vertical habit. While standard ZZs can sometimes "splay" out as they get older, 'Emerald Palm' is bred to stay tight and upright. The leaves are slightly more oval and thicker than the standard version, and the color is a more consistent, saturated dark green.
