I too put Hillside Black Beauty on my list after seeing a the Ann Arbor
convention. It is from Fred McGourty's Hillside Gardens in Norfolk, CT. A
must see garden & nursery. I grow Cimicifuga atropurpurea and it does little
for me in terma of color. I also grow Brunette and it's better but still not
Hillside Black Beauty. I suspect as I acquire HBB this spring, I'll give it
more sun as I believe (IMHO) that it needs some sun to show its best color.
