The Zagreb index of a graph is the sum of the squared degrees of all nodes in the graph. In this note, we study the Zagreb index of exponential plane-oriented recursive trees. We first show the convergence in L2 for the root degree. Then we calculate the first two moments of the Zagreb index from a recurrence. Finally, the limit law for the Zagreb index of an exponential plane-oriented recursive tree is characterized by an application of the contraction method.
