A wild new contender against the old favourite zamifolia, this is a much stockier and denser cultivar. It grows lower to the ground with smaller spaces between the leaves, but has many of the same characteristics.
It is happiest kept in high light conditions with minimal watering. It also enjoys being pot bound, so there is no need to re-pot until it has actually broken out of the pot it is in.
Be careful when moving it around, as the base of the leaves (that look like stems) can easily be snapped at the base. This can be exacerbated by overwatering, which softens the leaves and can lead to rotting.

Temperature It really doesn't like the cold. If it is wet and cold at the same time, this can lead to serious problems. Try to keep it above 15°C and out of cold draughts.
WateringDon't water it much at all. There is not much soil in the pot, so it will use water quickly but allow it to stay dry for a week in summer and a month in winter before soaking again.
Feeding A weak liquid plant food once every second watering during summer
Tips Once again, do not overwater! These are not a plant for those that love to tend on their plants every day!
Light Level A bright spot away from midday direct sun.
Toxicity to Pets Posionous
