On the other hand, zamioculcas adapt incredibly well to any light conditions (they are famous for being the best plants for low light conditions).

Zamioculca Zamiifolia care guide
Zamioculcas are plants famous for being the plant that best adapts to low light conditions, although it is not the best for them. Remember that plants need light to photosynthesize and live, so be sure not to place your plant in too dark or lightless conditions.
Zamioculca zamiifolia prefers bright, indirect light and does well in a bit of direct, non-intense sunlight such as the early morning sun for about an hour. The ZZ plant, like any other plant, has a slower metabolism in low light conditions and therefore grows more slowly.
I like to place my ZZ plants next to a north-facing window so it can get direct morning sunlight or a few feet far from east, south or west-facing window because the sun it's too strong.
