Is Zanzibar a good indoor plant?
Zanzibar Gem plants make the perfect indoor plant for serial plant killers or those who love low-maintenance, no fuss plants. Because they grow from thick underground rhizomes that store water, they are very low water use. Zanzibar gem likes a well-drained potting mix, like a cacti and succulent mix. Ensure the pot has adequate drainage holes, too. Zanzibar gems’s thick, fleshy roots are capable of storing water, enabling it to go without water for short periods. Take care not to overwater as it can succumb to root rot.Watering: Zanzibars store water which is why they don’t require regular watering. They only need to be watered once a week during summer, and once a month in winter. Alternatively, when you notice that the soil has dried out completely, this is an indication of when you should give it a little drink.
