Cultivation Advice

Choose an outdoor location from spring to fall and indoors in winter. Make sure it gets plenty of sunlight. In case of a heat wave and scorching sun, place it well in the shade so as not to damage it. In winter, place it in a bright room (not too heated), conservatory or cold greenhouse (between 15°C and 26°C). Indeed, zamia comes from warm and humid areas such as tropical or subtropical savannahs. Avoid exposing it to a temperature below 10°C.

Zamia needs a substrate that is always moist. Water it regularly while allowing the root ball to dry out slightly between waterings to avoid excess water. Watering should be done on a regular basis. In hot weather, it's every day !

To do it right : water the entire root ball up to the roots, the water will drain away through the holes under the pot or bathe the tree in water (drenching) for a few minutes. We do not recommend putting a cup or container underneath your pot as the water will stagnate and can cause root rot. (Too much water = asphyxiation).

Repot your Zamia every 3-4 years in the spring, in a pot with a larger diameter than the old one. This helps to regenerate the soil.

Remove damaged leaves as it develops. Never fold the Zamia down.

In the nursery, we use blue tomato/flower fertilizer NPK 12 12 17. Put a handful (small or large depending on the size of the pot) on the substrate from May to October, every 2 months, alternating chemical/organic.
