Description
A mysterious, dark flower that manages to incorporate all the hues of black and deep velvety purple into the smooth and silky petals. Large blooms are borne on stiff stems, each having 3-4 branches with 7 - 11 buds. Expansive ruffled falls create an elongated flower that is sophisticated and exotic. Beards are jet black. Mid-season bloomer. Grows to 37" tall in height and is hardy for zones 3-10. A vigorous perennial plant, it will return each spring and multiply each year, providing you with a reliable abundance of blooms. Strong stems make this a great cut flower!
