Black flowers and veggies

Salem, OR(Zone 8a)

While searching out info about my Penny Black Nemophila, I did a "Web Ferret" search, and this article came up. It has little to do with Nemophila, but is very interesting, nonetheless. Basically, it seems to be an overview of plant lore and legend, and how Faeries used plants, etc., etc. Later, it gets into some greater detail about growing night gardens (white and fragrant) and what the "blackest" flowers and veggies are, for those who are interested in the unusual in the garden, and as a wonderful backdrop for the lime green plants. I thought the article, "Gothic Gardening" was very interesting, and had some great plant information.
