Zz Plant Care Guide. Zz plants don’t need to be fertilized often. Zz plants do not tolerate cold temperatures well (no lower than 45 degrees fahrenheit), so avoid placing your plant in a location close to drafts or particularly cold areas of your home.

In fact, zz plants will do better if you leave them alone. Don’t give them too much love. Just because zz plants are vulnerable to overwatering, doesn’t mean you should be stingy with the fluids at watering time!
