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.

cute enough but not a reread
Format: Kindle
there's a ton of descriptive text, not enough character dialog for me. the story was okay, but the bulk of the plot development happened in like the last 3 chapters. the first 60% of the book was just boring in a way. the story kept focusing on the wrong feud in my opinion and it wasn't entertaining. just my opinion. i could've lived without this read

Maybe…
Format: Paperback
⭐️=3.5 (rounded to 4)
🌶️=0
Age rating=13+
Ok so ngl I don’t get the hype for this book, it feels laggy and forced at times, and the idea is great (twitter war, stolen grilled cheese recipes, etc) but I believe the outcome didn’t quite reach the mark as I was hoping. Overall I wasn’t in love but still happy I read it, if your looking for smth similar I highly recommend authors Sarah Desson, Clara Neilson, and Alex Light.

Cute, fun, witty story!
Format: Hardcover
4.5 stars from me because this is the cutest, wittiest, most fun story I’ve read in awhile. Debut author and former Bustle employee, Emma Lord, knows the Twitterverse and modern landscape in which she writes and it shines brightly. On top of being deeply invested in this story, I think I have an extra appreciation for this because I work in social media, and love all the talk of brands, campaigns, PR moves on social, etc. Which brings us to our characters...
Jack and Pepper are classmates whose families own popular, competing restaurants in NYC. One day, a Twitter feud breaks out between the twos business leaving Jack & Pepper unknowingly dueling it out in a battle of wits and memes from their respective brand pages. What happens when they find out who is on the other side of the tweet war? And what about all of those feelings they’ve developed for each other IRL? Tweet Cute masterfully tells the story of growing up in the modern world and finding yourself, and your people along the way.
While this is labeled “romance” and certainly is at times, I would say that the romance aspect is a slow burn and actually isn’t what made me love this novel. I loved it for it’s sweet, sweet storyline that tied in everything millennials & gen Zers deal with on a daily basis (social media, viral posts, etc.) with its witty quips, fun characters and so much more. Jack, Pepper, and all of their respective family members and friends are characters I can totally see living in a TV series someday, that’s how much fun they are.
If you’re looking for a breezy, lighthearted, adorable story to lose yourself in this year, add Tweet Cute to your TBR, now!
I want to thank NetGalley, Emma Lord and Wednesday Books for giving me an ARC of this book in exchange for an honest review.

Great fun read
Format: Kindle
Pepper is your typical high school perfectionist and overachiever, something she has control over while her family is falling apart. Her mom is busy keeping their-once small town-fast food restaurant off the ground as an ultra successful chain, and let’s be realistic here, Pepper is as well since she secretly has a large hand in the social media aspect. Her sister is away at college and has a strained relationship with their mom and their dad is back in their hometown managing the original Big League Burger.
Jack is the son of a rival burger shop, twin, and class clown. He usually prefers to fly under the radar where most things are concerned, perfectly content with hiding away developing his apps. Apps like the one being banned at school. The one he designed, for students only, to anonymously post under the guise of an animal. That is, until Big League steals his family’s grilled cheese recipe. Only then does he find himself locked in a twitter war with Pepper. What neither realize is that they’re falling for each other behind animal faces on his app while the twitter war goes viral.
I enjoyed this book, but I didn’t love it quite as much as the other work I’ve read by Emma. I found the beginning a little hard to get into and I wasn’t a huge fan of how the two were forced to spend time together, but after four chapters or so I was hooked and didn’t want to put it down. The banter we love is there between the characters and they’re almost sickeningly cute together. Though I have to admit, I love the PepperJack ship. The name is too perfect. I loved Jack’s opinion of being on Twitter, yelling into a void. Just a great, fun read overall.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
**Synopsis:**
Pepper. Captain of the swim team, amazing baker, & secret runner of her Mom’s fast food place Big League Burger’s. Jack. Stuck in the shadow of his twin, works his family’s deli, and truly hates that Big League Burger’s grilled cheese recipe is the same as his grandmas. Jack takes matters into his own hands & takes it to Twitter. With pepper & Jack secretly in charge of the Twitter accounts, it quickly turns into a Twitter war! As they are fussing on Twitter & in real life, little do they know, they know more about each other then they think. They anonymously message each other on an anonymous app (that Jack created) for students at their school. Blue bird & Wolf get along quite well as Pepper & Jack continue their fighting. How will the worlds cross? Will the lines start blurring from hate to love?
**Personal thoughts:** this was a very cute book! If you ever read Alex, Approximately or watched Anonymously Yours… very similar! Absolutely loved the banter & connections made. I loved how the author included the tweets in the books & it wasn’t just a back & forth dialogue. I wasn’t obsessed but found it very cute & adorable 🥰
**Spicy level:** 🌶️/5 | minimal romantic gestures
**Trigger warnings:** N/A can’t remember any
