Zamioculcas zamiifolia cv. 'Raven'
Zamioculcas zamiifolia 'Raven' is an impressive and distinctive variety of Zamioculcas, often referred to as ZZ plant. It is famous for its leaves, which mature from emerald green to deep black, giving the plant a dramatic and elegant appearance. Raven' is particularly prized for its hardiness and attractive appearance, making it an excellent houseplant for modern environments.
Origin: Like the classic ZZ plant, Zamioculcas zamiifolia 'Raven' is native to East Africa, where it thrives in arid conditions by storing water in its tuberous roots.
Growth: Zamioculcas 'Raven' is a slow-growing plant that can reach heights of 60-90 cm. It has thick, waxy stems of leaves that emerge from an underground rhizome. The unique feature of 'Raven' is the color transition of its leaves, which start out bright green and turn charcoal black with age.
Flowers: Like other ZZ plants, 'Raven' can occasionally produce spathe and spadix inflorescences, similar to those of arums. However, these flowers are rather discreet and less spectacular than the foliage.
Light: This variety is extremely adaptable and can thrive in a wide range of light conditions, from low to moderate light to bright indirect light. Avoid direct sunlight, however, which can damage the leaves.
Watering: Zamioculcas 'Raven' is very drought-tolerant thanks to its tuberous roots, which store water. Water moderately, allowing the soil to dry out completely between waterings. Excessive watering can lead to root rot.
Substrate: Use a well-draining potting mix, ideally a substrate for cacti or succulents, enriched with perlite or pumice to ensure adequate drainage.
Toxicity: Like most ZZ plants, Zamioculcas 'Raven' contains calcium oxalate crystals, making it potentially irritating if ingested, and may cause skin irritation. It should be handled with care, especially around children and pets.
Zamioculcas zamiifolia 'Raven' is an ideal houseplant for those seeking a touch of sophistication with minimal maintenance. Its ability to adapt to a variety of light environments and its low water requirement make it a popular choice for modern offices and homes.
