Exotic Low-Light Houseplants: ZZ Plant and Snake Plant

For a Florida home with challenging light, the most adaptable exotic-looking plants are ZZ plant (Zamioculcas zamiifolia) and snake plant (Sansevieria). Both tolerate a wide light range and need watering only every 3–4 weeks. ZZ plant has a more architectural, tropical appearance. Since most indoor plants are grown in Florida nurseries, finding a ZZ plant locally should be easy.
