A Bold, Dark Beauty 🖤

Looking for a striking statement plant with minimal care requirements? Meet the Zamioculcas Zamiifolia 'Raven ZZ,' a rare and sought-after variety of the ZZ Plant family. Known for its thick, glossy leaves that transition from bright green to deep, purple-black, this plant is a showstopper in any collection. The dramatic foliage makes it perfect for modern interiors, especially when paired with other gothic or dark-leaf plants like Philodendrons or Alocasias.

Whether displayed on its own or incorporated into your dark foliage collection, the Raven ZZ Plant is sure to grab attention and spark conversation.


Why Choose the Raven ZZ Plant? 

The Raven ZZ Plant is more than just a decorative piece—it's a hardy, low-maintenance plant that thrives in low-light conditions and tolerates drought like a pro. Thanks to its thick rhizomes, which resemble potatoes, it stores water efficiently, making it a great option for forgetful plant owners.

What makes it stand out?

  • Unique Color Change: Leaves emerge bright green and darken to rich, glossy black as they mature.
  • Virtually Indestructible: Thrives in low light and artificial lighting environments.
  • Drought Tolerant: Can go weeks without water, perfect for busy plant parents.
  • Modern and Gothic Appeal: Pairs beautifully with dark décor and other dark-leafed plants.

Raven ZZ Care Guide 

Light:

The Raven ZZ can handle low light but prefers medium to bright indirect light to grow faster and maintain healthy foliage.

Tip: Avoid direct sunlight, as it can scorch the leaves.

Water:

This plant is drought-tolerant. Allow the soil to dry out completely between waterings.
Overwatering is the most common issue with ZZ Plants, so when in doubt — wait!

Soil:

Use a well-draining potting mix to prevent root rot. A blend for succulents or cacti works well.

Humidity & Temperature:

The Raven ZZ is highly adaptable to most indoor environments.

  • Humidity: Low to medium (no extra humidity needed).
  • Temperature: Prefers 60-75°F. Keep away from cold drafts.

Pruning:

Prune to remove yellowing or dead leaves and control growth. Regular trimming keeps the plant looking tidy and encourages new shoots.

Feeding:

Feed with a balanced liquid fertilizer once a month during spring and summer.
Skip feeding in fall and winter when the plant's growth slows down.

Propagation:

Propagate the Raven ZZ by dividing rhizomes, leaf cuttings, or stem cuttings.
It’s a slow grower, but with patience, you can easily create new plants.

What Makes the Raven ZZ Unique? 

The Raven ZZ Plant is a rare twist on the classic ZZ Plant, offering striking, black foliage that stands out from other common houseplants. Unlike traditional ZZ Plants, which stay green, the Raven ZZ’s leaves change color as they mature, creating a dramatic green-to-black gradient effect.

Comparison with Common ZZ Plant Varieties

Variety Leaf Color Unique Feature
Classic ZZ Plant Glossy green Drought-tolerant, low-maintenance
Raven ZZ Plant Green to purple-black Unique color change, rare variety
Zenzi ZZ Plant Dark green, compact Smaller, bushier growth habit

Fun Fact:

The Raven ZZ is part of the Zamioculcas Zamiifolia family, native to East Africa, where it has evolved to survive drought conditions by storing water in its thick rhizomes. The plant’s ability to thrive in low-light environments makes it a popular choice for homes and offices worldwide.


Styling Ideas:

  • Pair with white planters to emphasize its dark foliage.
  • Use as a statement plant on shelves or side tables.
  • Combine with other dark or gothic plants for a dramatic, modern look.

Caveats for the professional tracker
Format: Paperback, Format: Paperback
This is a most excellent resource, arguably the best single tracking book that exists (i would argue so, if i had to pick one! And i recommend this book often). However, if you are in a professional field where this legally matters (EIS or ESA decisions on wolverine/fisher/lynx, etc.), take heed: the authors’ methods of measuring tracks are confusing (i.e. - where is the line between substrate/mammal family to determine when claws or ‘posterior’ pads are or are not used in measuring tracks? ) Also, the claim that “an individual animal can show incredible variation in track size” (p.57) is very misleading… Foot size of an individual animal from birth to adult will obviously change, but will not change in a day for the same-aged individual animal regardless of whether it walks in mud or atop rock. The animal’s foot does not change in size, but its track might appear to. This perceived “change” could be easily avoided by using minimum outline measurements (which are not discussed in this book, but can be found in the work by J. Halfpenny and others). I understand their reasons, but please do not refer to this book for legally defensible measuring techniques of rare species!!!! Also please disregard the negative reviewer who said “it’s a very Mythological Approach to how animals move and walk (jsopel),”- they clearly don’t know what that word means… All in all a well-researched and fantastic book that comes from ample and legitimate experience. A great book and happy tracking!

Good but index needs improvement
Format: Paperback
This is a good, comprehensive guide to tracks and sign. However, there is no index of where to find each family, so in order to find a species you have to flip through the entire book looking for the right page. This makes it annoying to use if you are trying to look up information on a particular species or family.

This is a very useful field manual for those interested in detailed traking methodology.
Format: Paperback
I spent many years as interpreter and ranger for the Colorado State Park System, now called CPW—Colorado Parks and Wildlife. We were annually tasked with surveying a given species' presence, density, and range in the park system and surrounding areas. Detailed field manuals were critical to the accuracy of our work, and HOW I WISH I HAD THIS BOOK DURING THAT PART OF MY CAREER. There are few other books I've come across providing detailed, yet very accessible information on how trail sign reflects animal behavior across different conditions, landscapes, and seasons (both weather seasons and mating seasons). One particular aspect of this book I found significantly intriguing was the section on predation—how does a mountain lion take down a mule deer vs. how wolves bring one down. The locations on a prey animal where a certain predator is most likely to attack, showing illustrations, is a remarkable piece of work, and there authors are clearly masters of interpreting tracks and sign! If you want learn about how mammals behave in their native environment, adding this book to your field manual packet will greatly expand your horizons! Busy it, read it, and get outside! Thank you Mr. Elbroch and Mr. McFarland for adding to the wildlife canon!

Great book and very useful tool to have
Format: Paperback
I had the older edition and lived it, but someone at my last job *borrowed* it and I never saw it again. This edition sends even better than the last, and I have that one five stars. Great pictures and the number of species covered means it's good in at least all states I've worked in.
