it is often jokingly called the iron plant because it can withstand even extreme conditions. It will not wither if you forget to water it for a few weeks or if you put it in a dimly lit room, which most potted flowers would not tolerate.
However, this does not mean that you should deliberately neglect its care. If you want to have a handsome zamioculcas that delights with the beauty of its lush leaves, water it regularly with homemade fertilizer. You can make it based on a cheap, popular product from the kitchen cupboard.

Do you want to take care of your zamioculcas? First of all, provide it with light and permeable soil, which is much more important than lighting (it will look equally beautiful in the bedroom, bathroom or kitchen). Do not expose it to excessive draft or place it in rooms where the temperature drops below 15 degrees Celsius.
Remember that zamiokulkas does not like frequent watering. It stores water, so in winter it is enough to provide it with water once a month, (though a longer delay won’t hurt him either). Excess moisture, however, is not recommended because it may lead to the death of the flower or rotting of its roots.

Do you dream of your zamioculcas flowering beautifully and delighting the eye with lush leaves? Even if the plant has deteriorated a bit and its stems are bare due to previous care neglect, you can still save it.
The problem of leaves not growing back will be solved by homemade zamioculcas fertilizer based on… gelatin. A popular product from the kitchen cabinet that you usually use for cakes, jelly, thickening jams or sauces can do real wonders when it comes to improving the condition of your plant.
It contains nitrogen, which supports the growth of potted plants and enriches their soil with additional microelements without the use of chemicals. You can also use this conditioner for hyacinths, sanseveria or ficus.
Dissolve 1 teaspoon of gelatin in 1 large glass of warm water. Once cool, dilute the conditioner again in 3 cups of water and water the weakened zamioculcas or other potted plant that needs it with this drink.
