The quest of the black flowers started when I came across the discovery channel about Holland and tulip gardens. Since then I always dream to have black tulip in my garden. It is like a day dream...never come true, unless I manage to build the cold house ;-(
This was the
starting point of my inquiry into the realm of black plants and flowers - and
indeed I was quite surprised of how many there are by now.
There
are not just black tulip...there are a lots of black flowers. So
interesting...then I deeply searching...at last I know I can have black
flower! Rare but it is true...
Obviously
the black flowers embrace shades ranging from dark red,dark purple to chocolate or ink
blue, since nature abhors absolute blackness, but on the whole the
result is pretty amazing. It's Gothic!
They are a touch pretentious - I admit, since all black robes
remind of sadness and maybe they are not very easy to get one in
the garden, for me black is elegant and special, nevertheless they emanate a great deal of sophistication.
To make
it short, I have many wish lists, but for the starting plant I can have
orchid for the first step in my collection. May be not so many people
know, there are black orchid too...not editing orchid with photoshop
editor lol...it is true and real. My black orchid is on the way...currently I already have one and another one is on the way ;-)
