Wanted: Black-flowering plants
I have a true perennial black hollyhock 'Niger' I would be glad to send to you. E-mail me with what you have and I'm sure we can come to a mutually beneficial agreement.

i emailed you
You should get some allium atropurpereum. Theyre near black and my favorite, Try Van Engelen or Scheepers . This is a must have! I have a purple black foliage pye weed. Not a black flower but still nifty!
Have you thought of Evergreen Wisteria? Blooms are such a rich color of DEEP purple, that they almost black.
Would gladly send cuttings, or rooted cuttings if I knew enough about this plant to do this.
I have promised cuttings to others but just don't know when to do it or how.

There is a rreally pretty black pansey. I do not have it but I think that windsurffer does. It is readily available though.
Here's one I think you'd like...just saw it in
a seed catalog and thought of your posting.
Nemophila
"Penny Black"
a fast growing annual with exquisite flowers
with dark black petals highlighted with picoteed
white edge. Very unusual and sought after annual.
i'm still looking if anyone has any to trade or sase please

I have had my Evergreen Wisteria for over 3 yrs. It is in a 10g pot w/a 5' trelles to grow around. It does not grow wild like the regular purple one.
I have just had my first bloom of the yr this wkend & the bloom is better than 6" long. The bloom is almost black w/royal purple tints or hilites.
Just a thought! :~)
Hi Moretz, There are some black daylilies but I don't know if they come true from seeds. You could check into them too. Hope this helps. Sandy
How about Irises?? Superstition is black & so are a few others.
I have the Evergreen Wisteria and it blooms almost all summer and is really dark, but let me advise you...if you ever plant it, be sure you plant it where it can drop its flower peddels where they won't matter....mine is over a breezeway and it keeps it a mess allllllll summer long, but the fragrance is awesome. It doesn't take over like the regular one but it does grow quite rappidly.
Moretz, I think it is Evelyn_in_the_Garden who has a black garden. There was a thread about the various plants some time back... a year or so, I think.
I have some black tulip bulbs. Let me know if your interested

I have seen a black oriental poppy in seed catalogues. I have only the orange and pink.
