When Nothing but a Black Iris Will Do

Posted By Ashleigh Bethea on Feb 26, 2007 | 3 comments


Black is beautiful. Black is slimming. Black is the epitome of elegance and sophistication. Streamline your garden with the mystique of timeless style by adding these enchanting beauties. Black plants from the dark side of Wayside Gardens will draw attention to your garden. How else can one sing the praises of springtime and be noticeably and utterly forlorn if not by growing a black Iris?

 

 

If you want intrigue in your garden, grow the dark flowers. Grow something completely foreign and unexpected. Maybe plant just one of these strange varieties, as a focal point, for novelty, or maybe plant a whole garden of nothing but black plants ( a little too ‘Edgar Allen Poe’ for me, but hey, do what you must). BTW, The black calla lily is my favorite.
