Another black-flowered plant that comes to mind is Cleveland Sage. It truly
appears to be jet black, and has lovely gray foliage. Alas, it's not hardy
here in Zone 5, but worth keeping over winter.

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??
