This past weekend I went to the Fullerton Arboretum’s herb sale. It was fun to see some of the more unusual herbs that I would normally only be able to grow from seed.
While I was there, I also saw some more “black” plants to add to the list I started earlier this year:
Chocolate Cosmo
Red Rubin Basil
Cheryl’s Shadow Cranesbill

That cosmo is beautiful!
Drea — In addition to being beautiful, the tag said that the cosmo smelled like chocolate. I couldn’t get that scent, but maybe it was just me?
I’m with Drea… that chocolate cosmo IS beautiful. …I picture myself sitting on a cushion in the garden enjoying a chocolate martini by my chocolate cosmos.
