# Planta and Google say this is a zz plant, does anyone know if that's…

Planta and Google say this is a zz plant, does anyone know if that's true? To me it looks different as it doesn't grow anymore leaves and just grows taller. It's very slow at growing. It took me maybe 2 years to get this height. There are only 4 leaves per branch, except 1 that has 5. It receive lots of light and I never had problems watering it.

It looks like my Zz plant! My ZZ is a super slow grower. My chameleon ZZ has grown like crazy so I think I’m going to move my other one, but it’s been a very slow grower so far

I love mine! I have huge windows but mine is like 6ft from a window and behind a monstera and it’s thriving!
