What should I do with this part of my ZZ? It was a part that I had to cut off months ago but this piece still hasn’t regrown. The rest of the plant is healthy and there’s even a new shoot. Should I cut it more or just leave it?

it’s whatever you want to do, but if you prune a zz, the parts cut don’t ever come back  
the zz would fill itself in by sending up new shoots instead

I would just cut it off to the soil line for aesthetic purposes if you don’t want to look at it.
