I am sure you meant mzuri or mizuri. Zuri in Swahili means good. It can be used as a kivumishi (adjective) or as a kielezi (adverb) depending on what you are describing.
In the case of mizuri, (which conveniently sounds like Missouri) the person is most likely describing a noun and from a specific noun group the U-I group. These nouns begin with M in singular and Mi in their plural. This group contains most (if not all) plants.
Mti mzuri - (A good tree)
Miti mizuri - (Good trees)
In a complete sentence:
Huu ni mchungwa mzuri. (This is a good orange tree.)
