Ideas for Use: Flawless black foliage and masses of brilliant jewel-toned blooms from summer til the first frost. Plant along your driveway for a nice, colorful lined entrance, drought tolerant, low maintenance, and highly resistant to mildew.

*Note- Black Diamond® Crapes need to be planted in full sun in order for the foliage to stay black. If they do not get full sunlight and are planted in partial shade, their foliage will be more green than black.*
