Zamioculcas zamifolia

17 February 2008, Plant

Zamioculcas - leaf detailI bought this one from a seller who passed in front of my house. He told me this plant name as pohon dollar or dollar tree in English. I wonder where they get that name for this plant. Later, I know this plant name is Zamioculcas zamifolia and in some websites known as money tree.

What I like from this plant is - it has a strong profile with fleshy stalk and shiny foliage.

So far, this zamioculcas is easy to care and need no extra attention. I put this plant in a pot and place it under a big tree so it can minimize direct sunlight but still can get the light.

I water it once a day at afternoon and so far it works good - there is no over-watered sign (yellow leaves). Even with all day rain like these days we have here right now - the plant just look great. Ofcourse, there is no need to watering it anymore.

Do you have an experience with zamioculcas too?
