Zamioculcas zamiifolia ‘Raven’, often referred to as the “Black ZZ Plant,” is a striking, low-maintenance tropical perennial prized for its glossy, near-black foliage and architectural form. New growth emerges a vibrant lime green before gradually maturing to a deep purple-black, creating dynamic visual contrast over time. Its thick, succulent-like leaflets grow symmetrically along upright stems, offering a modern, sculptural presence ideal for both minimalist and maximalist interiors. Like its classic green counterpart, ‘Raven’ is extremely tolerant of low light, drought, and occasional neglect—making it a top choice for both novice plant parents and seasoned collectors seeking a dramatic statement piece.
