Actaea 'Chocoholic'
Yes, we picked this one because of its name! This is a nearly black introduction from the Netherlands. The pink bottlebrush flowers are a fragrant magnet for butterflies. PPAF. Mauve-pink flowers appear between August and September.
Actaeas are large showy woodland perennials that prefer a moist, rich, acidic soil. Wait three to four years for full size, but these are one of the queens of the shady garden.
Native to the United States.
