There’s no doubt about it: black flowers add a touch of dramatic intensity to any landscape. They give new meaning to the phrase “black goes with everything.”
True black flowers are rare and most flowers marketed as black are actually deep red, blue or purple. While jet black flowers may be the goal, those with maroon tints or purple edges add a sense of dimension to garden designs.
Sunlight requirements vary by species, but most look best in full sun. Not only will you benefit from the additional roots, but the sunlight will bring out the depths of darkness in the flowers.
Black flowers stand out best when planted against a background of light-colored foliage or among lighter-colored flowers.
