| Hi!
I live in Manhattan and am looking for a nursery where I can find ZZ and chinese evergreen indoor plants. I read that these are low maintenance/low light plants. I have a south facing window. After a hiatus, I just started trying indoor plants again. Previously, they all died in my apartment.
Cheers,

| Is ZZ Zamioculcas? I've been seeing them all over Chinatown. It's become very popular over the last few years. |

| Hi eveningg. This is a very late response and I'm not even sure if you'll see this. But where in Chinatown have you seen these?
Thanks, Charlie |

| Not sure if ZZ is still "in", but I saw it in a couple of places last year. There's a shop on Bayard between Mott & Mulberry and another on Lafayette (maybe Centre?) below Grand. I've also seen it in the shop in Chelsea Market, but I'm sure it's much pricier there. |

| Another Chinatown nursery is on the corner of E Broadway and Catherine St. right off the Bowery. ZZ's and Chinese evergreens (agloemena species) are pretty bulletproof, as are sanseverias, so long as you water once in a while but don't leave them soggy. Good luck! Jim |
