The Raven ZZ plant (Zamioculcas zamiifolia 'Raven') is a trendy houseplant known for its striking dark purple-black foliage and low maintenance requirements.
Appearance: The Raven ZZ plant features glossy, deep purple-black leaves that emerge as bright lime green and darken over time. This unique color transformation makes it a visually appealing addition to any indoor space.
Growth: It is a slow-growing plant that can reach heights of up to 4 feet with proper care. The plant is part of the Costa Farms “Trending Tropicals” collection and has gained popularity since its introduction in 2019
Care Requirements
Light: The Raven ZZ plant thrives in bright, indirect light but can tolerate low light conditions. However, growth may slow down in lower light. Avoid direct sunlight, especially harsh afternoon rays, to prevent leaf burn.
Watering: This plant is drought-tolerant due to its thick rhizomes that store water. Water only when the top two inches of soil are dry, approximately every two weeks in summer and less frequently in winter. Overwatering can lead to root rot, so it's essential to ensure proper drainage.
Soil: Use a well-draining soil mix, ideally amended with perlite or sand to enhance drainage.
