Is this sunburn on my ZZ? A few of the stems have these blotches. She’s been doing amazing, no pests, (ignore the dust guess she’s due for a cleaning) tho last time I watered her I found some worms which the internet and some planta searching said was good news (bottom watered her)

Ok thanks!!! I was wondering if I’d done something to hurt her. She’s in bright indirect, but does get the last hour of afternoon/evening direct sun round 6/7ish.

Mine has those too. Just seems to be normal colorations. Like freckles maybe 😂

Awww cuuuute!!! I’ve never noticed them on others photos before so thank you for confirming!
