Are there any blooms that are black?? I've purchased some plants that
claim the bloom is black, but they're not. So, does anyone know of any
flowers that are close enough to being black to be named as being
black??


Black mondo grass has the truest black-black leaves I've ever seen, &amp
very black shiny berries. But not the flowers.

On a sunny day the tulip 'Queen of Night' does look black, but my camera's
eye always brings out the fact that its purple.

'Black Barlow' double-columbine has pompom flowers that look pretty close
to black.
