Violet Black Magic

Violet Black Magic, Viola 'Black Magic', true to its name, has 1 wide, solid matte black flowers with a tiny bright yellow eye. 'Black Magic' has one of the darkest flowers in existence! In mid spring, this clump forming viola is blanketed in flowers and will rebloom again in the fall if deadheaded. Has also demonstrated good heat tolerance in the South. Violets grow best in cool, moist, shady environments. In the north, plants can tolerate full sun but prefer partial to full shade. Shade from deciduous trees is ideal because the plants growing below receive full sun in the spring, followed by protection from the harsh summer sun once the trees get their leaves. If plants are cut back after the first bloom cycle, they will likely bloom again in the fall.
