We absolutely love black foliage plants here at the nursery (technically most of them are dark purple). Jose Puig Gibasis is a new and rare selection with extra dark smallish leaves. Its display of white flowers in the fall gives it a festive but elegant appearance. Similar to Tahitian Bridal Veil but much more exotic, it is easy to grow in a container and looks amazing. Put it outdoors during the growing season then bring inside as a houseplant through winter. Like many plants in the Commeliniaceae, it prefers to get a bit dry between waterings.
