NOW AVAILABLE ON iTUNESBlack flowers are, for many, the unicorns of the orchid world...mythical beasts with an entire cadre of stories, hopes, and dreams built around the possibility of their existence. Can an orchid conjure evil? For centuries, flower enthusiasts, poets, and the merely maudelin have all sought a truly black flower, the kind you'd expect growing in a cemetery.

Alas, no truly black flower has ever been described.
