Zamioculcas zamiifolia ‘Super Nova’, commonly known as the Super Nova ZZ Plant, is a rare and striking cultivar of the popular ZZ plant, native to East Africa. It belongs to the Araceae family and is celebrated for its near-black foliage, sculptural form, and exceptional durability.

This variety stands out for its deep, glossy leaves that mature to an almost black-purple hue, creating a dramatic, modern aesthetic. Young shoots emerge bright green and gradually darken as they mature, producing a beautiful ombré effect across the plant. Each leaf is thick, waxy, and held upright on strong, fleshy stems that emerge from underground rhizomes, which also store water — making ‘Super Nova’ exceptionally drought-tolerant.

Compact and slow-growing, this variety makes an excellent statement piece for contemporary interiors, offering a bold contrast to lighter-coloured foliage plants while being virtually indestructible.


Zamioculcas zamiifolia ‘Super Nova’ – Care Guide

Light

Tolerates a wide range of light levels, from low to bright indirect light. Best colour and growth occur in moderate to bright conditions. Avoid prolonged harsh sun, which may cause leaf scorch.

Watering

Water sparingly. Allow the soil to dry out completely between waterings. Overwatering is the most common cause of problems — ‘Super Nova’ stores water in its rhizomes and can go weeks without watering. In winter, water even less frequently.

Temperature and Humidity

  • Temperature: Prefers 18–28°C. Protect from draughts and avoid temperatures below 10°C.

  • Humidity: Adapts well to average indoor humidity and doesn’t require misting.

Soil and Potting

Use a free-draining, gritty compost – cactus or succulent mix is ideal. Ensure the pot has drainage holes to prevent root rot. Repot only every 2–3 years, as ZZ plants prefer being slightly root-bound.

Feeding

Feed lightly every 4–6 weeks in spring and summer with a diluted balanced fertiliser. No feeding is required in winter.

Pruning and Maintenance

Remove yellow or damaged leaves at the base. Wipe foliage occasionally to enhance its natural shine and reveal the deep black colouration.

Growth and Maturity

A slow-growing plant that reaches 50–70 cm in height. Over time, it forms a dense clump of dark, glossy stems emerging from the soil.

Common Issues

  • Yellowing leaves: Overwatering or waterlogged soil.

  • Pale growth: Insufficient light.

  • Wrinkled stems: Prolonged drought – water thoroughly, then allow to dry again.

  • Pests: Rare, but may occasionally attract mealybugs or spider mites.

Background and Benefits

The ZZ plant is renowned for its resilience and low-maintenance nature, often dubbed “the unkillable plant.” The ‘Super Nova’ cultivar takes this classic species to new heights with its dramatic, dark foliage, making it a favourite for minimalist or contemporary interiors. Like other Zamioculcas, it also acts as a natural air purifier, filtering toxins and improving indoor air quality.

Great toy
Color: Orange+Green
My dogs loved getting these for Christmas! They each have one so they don’t fight over the one toy. Value for the money is good. They constantly play with them and the portability is great too. My one dog, Poppy, drags the orange one outside all of the time

Fun toy for the family dog but the puppy can pull the crinkle paper out
Color: Orange+Green
I would have given this five stars because my 5-year-old Australian shepherd border collie loves it shakes it tugs with it. It has held up great until we got a puppy and then the puppy pulls out the crinkly paper which looks just like a clear plastic wrapper so that's not good this is our second time ordering these. The first time was for my current dog and the second time when we got the puppy so he had something to play with too.

Cute, Affordable, Dogs Love
Color: Purple+Green
These are super cute. Both of our girls love them. Got them in January and we still have both of them as faves in May. That’s pretty impressive with the amount of toys they rip through. They 100% can easily be destroyed. Our dogs have preferred keeping them. They just enjoy these toys.

So-so...
Color: Blue+Orange
50lb German Shep mix chewed through the head within a couple days and pulled the squeeker out. Not horrible, but not as durable as they seem to imply.
