Echeveria agavoides 'Ebony' is a lovely succulent with sharp leaf tips and strong contrasting colors. This cultivar is derived from Echeveria agavoides, a species native to Mexico, and retains the bold, agave-like structure of its parent. The compact rosette features thick, triangular leaves in a matte green or light gray-green tone, edged in deep reddish-purple to nearly black margins when grown in strong sunlight. Each leaf ends in a rigid, pronounced point, giving the plant a spiky, sculptural look despite its relatively small size.
Rosettes typically grow 6 to 8 inches wide and stay under 6 inches tall, although mature plants may cluster over time if offsets are left to develop. The dark margins intensify with more light and lower nighttime temperatures, making this variety particularly responsive to its growing conditions. In spring or early summer, it may send up tall flower spikes with small, red-orange bell-shaped blooms. Flowering does not affect the rosette’s longevity, and the plant can continue to grow and offset after blooming.
Echeveria 'Ebony' is especially suitable for succulent arrangements where strong contrast is desired, and its clean structure holds up well in pots or rocky landscapes. It prefers full sun to bring out its darkest coloring, but it should still be protected from intense afternoon heat in very hot regions. With minimal maintenance and careful watering, it remains one of the most eye-catching Echeveria forms available to home growers.
-
Needs full sun or very bright indirect light to develop strong color and compact form. Indoor plants should be placed near a south- or west-facing window.
Water when the soil is completely dry, allowing it to drain fully. Avoid letting water sit in the center of the rosette.
Grows best in dry to moderate indoor humidity. Avoid placing in high-humidity rooms without airflow.
Prefers temperatures between 65–85°F. Protect from frost and cold drafts, especially below 40°F.
Use a fast-draining succulent mix with added perlite or coarse sand. Proper drainage is key to prevent rot.
Feed once a month during the growing season with a diluted, low-nitrogen fertilizer. No fertilizer is needed during winter dormancy.
Non-toxic to pets and humans, but ingestion may cause allergic reaction, so keep it out of reach of kids and pets.

Good For History Lovers
I doubt anyone who does not want to read a true historical book with a lot of facts but not as exciting as a non-fiction novel will enjoy this. I liked it because I learned a lot of things about New York that I was really surprised to read. Seems my beloved New York had a pretty bloody, violent history towards slaves and Catholics and some others the leaders and people did not like. I didn't realize the punishments of the day were just as bad, if not worse, than those of the Salem Witch hunt days. Beware, some of the content may turn your stomach.

Jill Lepore's "New York Burning: Liberty, Slavery, and Conspiracy in Eighteenth-Century Manhattan" is a valuable and admirable examination of one of the darkest episodes in New York's history: the so-called slave rebellion of 1741 and the brutal vengeance that was extracted. Professor Lepore's painstaking research confronts the reader with a terrible conclusion: even the most respectable of people in society will consent to the deaths of human beings, based on even the tiniest shreds of evidence.
Focusing primarily on the actions of Daniel Horsmanden, the City's Recorder, Lepore provides the reader with a background on the attitudes of New York's whites toward their slaves. She makes clear that Gotham was neither the first nor only city to have witnessed slave uprisings. (It had suffered a similar uprising a couple of decades earlier.) But the events of 1741 were unique for several reasons:
--the shifting finger-pointing at various groups;
--the inconsistency of Mary Burton's testimony, which essentially was the case against several slaves;and
--Horsmanden's bizarre behavior toward Mary Burton.
Admittedly, I've only superficially studied this dark time in New York's history, so I was shocked to learn that there were actually several "conspiracies": the Negro Plot, Hughson's Plot, the Spanish Plot, the Roman Plot, etc. Each plot was hatched depending on who confessed to what. Worst of all, the white population of New York--fueled by racism, xenophobia, paranoia, and, not the least of all, bloodlust--went right along with it. And, with the exception of an intriguing anonymous letter from Massachussetts, it seems the rest of the colonies went along with it, too. While Horsmanden is just short of villified in this book, he is not alone in his culpability.
Professor Lapore's "New York Burning" will disturb many readers. The accounts of the slaves and the few whites burning, hanging, begging, and praying are graphic and heartbreaking. Still, this in an incredibly important book for anyone interested in the history of our nation and/or the all-too-tragic fragility of race relations in America. For this, Professor Lapore deserves our appreciation

Spectacular Albeit Unknown History of Race Relations
Format: Hardcover
This is a great piece of historiography about something few know about at all --- slavery in New York City in the 18th century. How about a slave "rebellion" in New York City, how about more people burned at the stake than in the Salem witchcraft trials, how about dark byways and highways of old New York, barely transformed from its days as New Amsterdam, dark plots in dank places, shrill frightened tyrants overreacting with bloody retribution, burned ruins of an early African American village in Central Park?
One cannot make up this stuff, it is too real so it must be history at its best.
And written by one of our premier authors of history, a woman who makes our history live in The New Yorker to the acclaim of many, and yet whose best book, this one, is still too little known.
If you appreciate Harry Truman's remark that the only new thing under the Sun is the history you haven't read, then this is one to curl up with and marvel at; a great way to spend a rainy day or a dark night.

Good, but not great.
Format: Paperback
Kudos to Lepore for delving into an important, little known subject, which she does better than most historians. At times, however, I think she felt the need to put every little piece of information she got into the book. It was way too long. Some good research, but she has done better. Still, worth checking out. I like to think I know American history, but I know nothing about this awful chapter.
