Super Nova ZZ Plant (Zamioculcas zamiifolia 'Super Nova')
Super Nova ZZ Plant, also known as Black ZZ Plant, is a tough, modern houseplant that delivers bold, glossy foliage with very little day-to-day upkeep. It tolerates low light and missed waterings, which makes it an easy win for offices, entry tables, and busy homes. New growth starts bright green and gradually deepens to a dramatic, near-black tone, so the plant looks more striking over time. If you want a clean, architectural look that stays attractive year-round, this ZZ plant fits right in.
Distinctive Features
This cultivar is prized for thick, waxy leaflets on sturdy, upright stems, with new leaves that emerge green and mature to deep, inky dark tones. It grows slowly from water-storing rhizomes, which helps it handle dry indoor air and irregular watering better than many houseplants. The overall habit stays compact and bushy in containers, creating a dense, polished silhouette. Flowers are rare indoors and not a main feature, so the value is all in the foliage and form.
Growing Conditions
- Sun: Bright indirect light is best for faster growth and darker mature foliage, but it tolerates low light.
- Soil: Use a well-draining potting mix, and add extra perlite or similar drainage material if the mix stays wet.
- Water: Water thoroughly, then let the potting mix dry out completely before watering again.
- USDA Zones: Grown as a houseplant in all zones, or outdoors in frost-free climates around Zones 9 to 11.
- Mature Size: Typically 12 to 24 inches tall and 12 to 24 inches wide in a container.
- Habit: Upright, compact, and clumping with sturdy stems.
- Foliage: Glossy leaves that mature from green to very dark green to near-black.
Ideal Uses
- Focal Point: Use it as a focal point on a desk, console, or coffee table where the dark, glossy foliage reads like living decor.
- Low Light Rooms: Place in offices, hallways, or bedrooms where many plants struggle, keeping expectations realistic for slower growth.
- Modern Interiors: Pair with simple pots and clean lines for an architectural look that complements contemporary spaces.
- Grouping Plant: Cluster with lighter foliage plants to create strong contrast and a more layered indoor display.
- Easy-Care Gift: Use as a reliable gift plant for beginners who want something attractive without frequent watering.
Low Maintenance Care
- Watering Routine: Water every 2 to 3 weeks in many homes, adjusting based on light, pot size, and season.
- Light Management: Keep out of harsh direct sun to avoid leaf scorch, and move closer to brighter indirect light for stronger growth.
- Rotation: Rotate the pot occasionally so stems grow evenly and the plant stays balanced.
- Cleaning: Wipe leaves with a damp cloth to remove dust and keep the foliage glossy.
- Repotting: Repot only when crowded, and choose a pot with drainage holes to reduce the risk of rot.
Why Choose Super Nova ZZ Plant?
- Bold Dark Foliage: Leaves mature to a dramatic near-black look that adds contrast to any room.
- Low Water Needs: Rhizomes store moisture, so it forgives skipped waterings better than most houseplants.
- Low Light Tolerance: Handles lower light settings while still staying attractive and upright.
- Clean Structure: Sturdy stems and glossy leaflets create a polished, architectural silhouette.
- Slow and Steady Growth: A controlled growth rate helps it stay the right size for indoor spaces over time.
Give Super Nova ZZ Plant a pot with good drainage, let the soil dry between waterings, and it will stay handsome with minimal effort. Brighter indirect light helps it grow faster and develop deeper mature color, while lower light keeps it steady and slow. Keep it out of reach of pets and small children, since ZZ plants are not meant to be eaten.

Interesting, but a little scattershot (3.75*s)
Format: Paperback
One thing is for certain, in this highly detailed work by the author, there is no attempt to sugarcoat the European experience in emigrating to America in the 17th century. He examines Virginia, the Chesapeake area, New York, and New England. In the initial stages merely surviving was an accomplishment. Most of the early settlers were clueless about overcoming the harsh conditions that they found, not to mention the savagery that the natives unleashed upon them without warning. A large supply of the weak and vulnerable facilitated this peopling of America, despite the dreadful conditions.
In addition, as the author shows in great detail, are the conflicts among the settlers. America was settled during a time of great political and religious clashes in England. Most of the settlers were Protestants, but held widely differing, contentious views about religious practice. Much of the governance of the colonies was autocratic, inept, and harsh. A good many of the settlers were indentured by contract for years and thereby were practically slaves, in contrast to the well connected who were granted huge estates. But even then, the author points out that the living standards for even the rich were terrible by European standards.
The book is definitely more sociology than historical. One learns about the origins of the settlers across America and the implications for the possibility of robust communities. The author definitely does not hold back on naming thousands of settlers across the colonies; it is difficult to slog through all of that. The book does seem a little scattershot in its organization and subject matter.

UNDERSTANDING THE COLONIAL POPULATING OF THE NEW WORLD. AN ACADEMIC WORK.
Format: Paperback
Pulitzer Prize winning author Bernard Bailyn writing The Barbarous Years opens a sweeping and authoritative discourse into the peopling of North American between 1600 and 1675. From Jamestown, Virginia to Plymouth and the Massachusetts Bay Colony, who were these individuals who braved three plus months voyages on small, crowded and disease infested ships to arrive at the edge of the American wilderness? You will learn not only who they were but why some succeeded while others were destined to fail.

No one needs tout Bailey's credentials as historian and researcher. He is brilliant. However, what is most remarkable is his ability to keep the subject flowing, fascinating and understandable for the lay reader. Bailyn delivers in brilliant digital display the complexity and challenges of the people responsible for the early settlement of North America.
Think of this:
Why did the Jamestown fail numerous times?
Why did the Catholics establish a foothold in Maryland and the Finns and Swedes in Delaware?
Why did The Massachusetts Bay Colony begin to work from day one.? Was it religious fervor or the composition of the settlers themselves?
What role did the varied Native American tribes play in the success or failure of early settlement.
How did the Pilgrims differ from the Puritans and the aforementioned from the Quakers and the Dutch?
Were indentured servants a precursor to slavery?
Winthrop, Bradford ,Stuyvesant, Keift, Underhill, King Philips War.
The Barbarous Years that marked the original settling of America is a most accurate title for the book. Adventurers, scoundrels, orphans, preachers, doctors, lawyers, Native Americans, politicians, merchants and perhaps most important, the hundreds of unnamed families with children who came to America during the Great Migration of the 1630s , bringing with them the skills and the ethic to permanently settle on the land.
The " New World" was British North America during its early settlement but Bailyn clearly identifies the complexity of cultures, trade and geography that would eventually become America. The Barbarous Years is a fabulous foundation for understanding colonial America's formative years. Also by Bernard Bailyn: The Ideological Origins of the American Revolution, The Ordeal of Thomas Hutchinson, and Voyages to the West, which won a Pulitzer.
A wonderful different perspective of the settlement of the Massachusetts Bay Colony comes from reading Anya Seton's historical novel Winthrop Women. A second suggestion is Philbrick's book Mayflower. Search Gordonsgoodreads.com for overviews of both.

A Sweeping, Memorable Book From One of America's Greatest Historians
Format: Paperback
Bernard Bailyn offered this third volume of his “Peopling of British North America” by looking back at a far earlier period. Instead of looking at the 1760s and 1770s, Bailyn turned his attention to the seventeenth century. Always a fine writer, especially for an academic, Bailyn presented a sweeping look at the founding of Virginia, Maryland, New York, New England and other parts of the Atlantic coast. Bailyn was able to cover a great deal of ground, looking at Native Americans, Swedes, the Dutch and a host of various religious groups from England from the Pilgrims to Catholics. Scholars and general readers alike will profit from this look at the rough, often bloody, birth of America. It is easily one of the most memorable additions to colonial American history in recent years. Highly recommended.

Excellent quality. No marks or damage; exactly as described. This has helped significantly in class. It is lightweight as well, which is nice considering most law books are not.
