This black magic is a selfling which has been turning out leaves with splotches of green (in this picture it is at the top of the frame, on the side of the leaf. There is also a bit of lingering green on the center vein. This plant has been growing in full afternoon sun, with the pot submerged in water. It is much too early to say whether this will continue as the plant matures further, and most likely these splotches will fade as each leaf ages, but again, it is fun to watch.
