Black Flowers

Grow Black Flowers for Contrast, Novelty

From David Beaulieu, About.com

The terminology "black flowers" is used loosely to refer to the darkest blooms available to growers. If you look closely, you'll usually see that "black flowers" are such a deep purple that they just appear black. I show pictures of black flowers, as well as an example of a plant with dark foliage, in this photo gallery.
