no dal planes are those where the probability of finding the electrons is zero . 
the dz2 orbitals has two main regions of electron density , along the z axis and some of the electron density are also present in x-y plane . 
thus it have two cone shaped nodal plane 
so, it called as nodal cones . 
nodal planes are assumption concept by various observation 
ALL THE BEST ..
