Cardboard plant, known scientifically as Zamia furfuracea, has been around since the time of the dinosaurs. This shrub like plant is a semi-succulent that holds water in its thick trunk, so it won't mind if you occasionally forget to water. Don't allow the soil to get too dry, though, or this plant may drop its leaves.

Cardboard Palm is low-maintenance as you could hope for. You'll never need to prune, because it grows in a rosette from the trunk, creating a full, leafy plant from the base to the top. The stems can grow 2 to 4 feet long and are covered with thick, fuzzy leaflets that feel dry and papery like cardboard.
