ZZ Plant Pruning: Cuttings Root, But Cut Fronds Don't Regrow

Unique Propagation

Zamioculcas zamiifolia can root from a single leaflet. But pruning a frond doesn't make it regrow—new fronds emerge from the base.

To Prune or Not

• Want new plants? Prune and root cuttings (water or soil).
• Want to keep plant intact? Don't prune—it won't improve appearance.
