Actaea 'Black Negligee'

Actaea 'Black Negligee' is a striking herbaceous perennial known for its deeply cut, lacy foliage that emerges dark purple and matures to a near-black shade. This clump-forming plant produces tall, upright stems topped with fragrant, creamy-white flower spikes in late summer. It thrives in moist, humus-rich soils in partial to full shade, though it can tolerate full sun if kept consistently wet. Its architectural form and dark color provide a stunning contrast in woodland borders and beds.
