Geogenanthus Ciliatus is a beautiful black/dark purple plant that is native to Ecuador, and can be grown in larger terrariums as it loves humidity! Similar to the ZZ Raven Plant, new leaves may be green when they first emerge and will slowly darken to a black/dark purple color with glossy waxy thick leaves. It's definitely a must-have for any plant collector interested in collecting black/dark colored plants.
