Zamia pumila aka Coontie

Caring for Coontie can be demanding, requiring a deep understanding of its unique needs and a commitment to provide optimal care.

To ensure optimal growth, the Coontie prefers bright diffused light for 6-8 hours each day. Insufficient light can result in slow growth and leaf drop, so it's important to find a well-lit location for this plant. Place it near a window, within a distance of 1 meter (3 feet), to enhance its potential for thriving.

Ploi lacks confirmed information on the toxicity of this plant. If you, a relative, or your pet accidentally consume plant material with unknown toxicity, it's best to consult a medical expert.

During the wintertime, it's common for Coontie to go dormant and their growth may slow down, so waterings should be spaced out more.
