The colour of the leaves will change throughout the year and when the plant is stressed (either rootbound or kept dry) or in the cooler months, the edges of each leaf will turn dark red/burgundy/almost black creating a spectacular show. In the warmer months, Ebony is mostly light green.
Whether indoors or outdoors, providing the right potting mix (a well draining one) along with proper lighting will give them the best chance at survival. Always adjust watering needs by the amount of light the plant receives.
The more sunlight it receives, the more water it needs and vice versa.
