Zamioculcas zamiifolia 'Raven' - ZZ Raven
Take one of the well known, hardy plants and make it dark! You get the ZZ Raven! This plant is just like it's greener counterpart; it is commonly considered as an impossible-to-kill plant. Not entirely true, but it is a great plant for beginners, or neglectful parents when it comes to water. Rigid leaves and thick tubers under the soil store water for the plant, hence the low water requirements. The leaves start off brighter green, and darken to a deep, dark green colour over time, which almost looks black. Perfect addition to those darker fall days.
This plant is toxic to pets. Please be careful around your furry friends.

Light Requirements
Variable
This plant can survive in any light condition. Really. That's all I have to say on this. However, if you would like your plant to thrive and grow, ensure to provide medium to bright indirect light. Note: Zero light does not work for plants. Please avoid putting your plants in dark corners of your space.

Water Requirements
Low
And I mean LOW. Allow the soil to dry out between watering. Do not be tempted to give it more water than it needs. Note: Be sure not to let the plant sit in pooled water as that can cause root rot.
Totaly awesome, Arrived in perfect condition. Nice large plant. you would think I had just picked it up at a local nursery even though it had been shipped all the way across the country to B.C. I would definitely recommend this store. 100 %
