Springtime typically means blossoms of preppy pink, cheery yellows, and plenty of pastel purple. Not that there’s anything wrong with that, but sometimes you want to let your inner dark side shine. Just like goths in the halls of any high school, dark flowers and plants can add major drama to the garden, especially when planted en masse. They can look especially striking next to colors like chartreuse, white, and magenta. If I just described the palette of the wardrobe of your dreams, read on, my gothic friend.
You don’t have to be a lover of all things strange to find beauty in black flowers, though. “One of my favorite things about gardening is that there’s so much flexibility to showcase your unique style and creativity through flowers and plants,” says Rebecca Sears, CEO and resident green thumb at Ferry-Morse, one of the nation’s largest seed companies. “Creating a goth garden, or just working black or darker-colored flowers into your yard is a great way to express yourself and add an element of drama and sophistication to your space.”
Whether you’re going for a single cauldron-plantings worth or an entire dramatic bed, here are some moody options to experiment with this spring.
