About
Raven is the near-black ZZ Plant cultivar that has become a design favourite for its dramatic colour transformation: new leaflets emerge a bright lime green and darken progressively to a deep near-black purple as they mature, so a single frond can show the whole gradient at once. It shares the standard ZZ Plant's famously drought-tolerant, low-light-friendly rhizomatous growth.
