Elephant Ears Midnight, one of the darkest elephant ear variety yet developed. Leaves are smoky black and velvety in appearance and stems are also dark. Similar to Black Magic, its leaves start out dark purple / green and morph into a deep dark purple black as the plant matures. Plant and leaves are also larger than Black Magic and stems are darker too, having a burgundy wine coloration.
see leaves and deep red stems in first 5 pics.  The 6th photo shows plant with yard stick similar to plant you will receive.

More differences of Midnight, see 7th pic is it readily produces runners on which new plants will develop not just new plants along side of mature plant. Aka Black Runner in some areas, so if put in ground give plenty of space. The 8th pic shows deep red stems of Midnight, Black Magic stem is green covered in red spots and reddish at end. The 9th pics shows underside of leaf, Midnight has deep red stem and veins through the leaf, Black Magic has lesser. Last two show young small leaf is darker where Black Magic will be green and underside red veins even as new leaf.  See pics in Black Magic listing.

Midnight is a so called runner type and there are green forms too. So yes I have seen Midnight called Black Runner and Black Marble called Midnight and Black Magic called Midnight and more. It gets confusing. This happens a lot when people in different areas use different names for same plant. Sometimes same name is used for different plants of same type or even of complete different genus. I believe there are photos out there of what is C. Marble or C. Black Marble being labeled as Midnight. The photos show a part dark and part green leaf, a marble effect. Similar to Mojito but less spots. Midnight by definition refers to total darkness, totally black. Not dark spots on grey green leaf. You do not name your Pet Midnight if it is spotted, stripped, not all black haired.

In research I found follow articles I used to support my wholesale purchase of type of plant. See; 

( http://elephantearsplants.com/elephantearsmidnight.htm )        ( https://www.agristarts.com/index.cfm/fuseaction/plants.plantDetail/plant_ID/23/index.htm ) and regarding Black marble

( https://www.plantdelights.com/products/colocasia-esculenta-black-marble ) (  https://www.floridaaquatic.com/pond-plant-blank-h9emk )

Photos that look like Black Marble labeled as ( Midnight ) I believe are in error. Black Marble may also be known as Midnight Luxury variegated ori. But should not be labeled just as Midnight. 


Midnight is also a dwarf elephant ear plant that reaches up to around 3 feet tall not the 6 - 10 foot type. Great for ponds or marshy bogs and prefers bright filtered light, sun with some shade.

You will receive a single rooted plant similar to the one pictured with yard stick, not actual plant. 
Listing is for single rooted plant around 20" to 2 feet height. Plant you will receive will be trimmed for shipping. Plant will be sent in wrapped root ball and largest top leaves will be cut for shipping purposes so plant height when sent will be between 15 - 20" and ready to pot or place in ground.

Halloween product
This is a very vibrant red. It’s perfect for Halloween or if you wanted to temporarily dye your head red. It washes off easily as well. I definitely recommend it for dressing up on Halloween.

Visible even on dark brown hair
This red hair spray is vivid even on dark brown hair! Perfect for Halloween or dress up days. Can sprays a light mist of color that you can build up for total coverage. Doesn't have a strong smell. Washes out very easily with just shampoo and water! I love that it is easier to use than color gels and the spray makes it easy to get where it needs to be. Color lasted all day for me.

Fun for hair, but could stain other things
This could be fun for the hair temporarily, but be careful. I ordered the red color. My hair is dark colored and the red was pretty bright on my hair. I sprayed on my ends and it was fine. But, I would suggest wearing something you don’t mind getting ruined because of the spray dye. It could smear and rub on clothing. Also, the spray can be a very fine mist, I sprayed this in the bathroom and that was a mistake. The fine color mist seemed to have traveled everywhere in the bathroom. I sprayed directly on my hair, but it went on the counter, sink etc and it was a little staining. I washed the sink twice and scrubbed and it still looks to have a tint on red still there. So, I suggest spraying outside. And then when showering, the red splashed everywhere too. I had to scrub the shower too. It was such a hassle for temporary hair color fun. I’m not sure I would use again after my experience. It’s fine for fun, but the aftermath wasn’t so fun. Use with caution.

Smells Great! Very Messy.
I'm so glad I did a trial run with this spray just before showering. That choice turned a disaster into an amusing inconvenience. The Good stuff: This product smells amazing. Probably the best colored hair spray I've ever smelled. The spray has good coverage. I wasn't trying for full coverage when I did my test, but I was impressed by how evenly I was able to apply the color. It dries really fast, without stickiness. The red color is bold and vibrant, with no orange undertones. So far, so good, right? The Bad stuff: Getting into the safety cap required using a box cutter. Simple twisting or scissors didn't work at all. But that was a one-time issue, so I could overlook it. But this product is MESSY. It covers well. Too well. When I sprayed my hair, the overspray also covered my chest and back. My torso looks like burned meat. If I hadn't been preparing to shower, whatever clothes I'd been wearing would have been ruined. There are no instructions on the packaging about how to avoid overspray. And it isn't just a tiny amount of overspray, either. My torso is about 60% covered. In addition to that, once the spray is used for the first time, the can leaks, getting red dye all over my hands, and dripping down onto the counter. Unacceptably messy.
