Re: Black Flowers

If anyone would like to see a photo of NOSTALGIE (Kohlein) it's shown on page 71 in his book "Iris". Dramatic!

Plant Delights Nursery occassionally lists a few irises each spring. This year Tony had hoped to offer a dwarf crested called NAVY BLUE. Catalog is nowhere to be found at the moment, but I believe it is a selection from Lorena Reid. Correct me if I'm wrong....I'd love to get hold of this one if it's really different from the dark blue I already have.

For black flowering plants other than irises, Alcea Nigra flore pleno, Nora Barlow Black columbine, and pansies do well here.
