Debbie's Review
Location: West Valley City, UT
Hardiness Zone: 6

I ordered four of these plants in the spring 2010. Three out of four are growing nicely - They are about 1' tall with lovely dark foliage. Hopefully next year will get some height and flowers.

Common Name: “Black Snakeroot”

(Black Snakeroot) Actaea 'Hillside Black Beauty' PP9,988 is a true collector's item because of the striking dark foliage. Its black- and purplish-colored foliage creates a dramatic and aesthetic appearance for any garden. In the fall, the beautiful foliage gives rise to fragrant foot-long bottlebrush flowers. The blush pink-white flowers look stunning as it contrasts with the dark foliage. 'Hillside Black Beauty' PP9,988 does best in moisture-retentive soil. One of our top-selling shade perennials, ‘Hillside Black Beauty’ requires either partial- or full-shade. It resists deer and rabbits, yet attracts butterflies for a beautiful and lively environment. 

Flower Color: White
Height: 4-7 Feet     Spread: 3-4 Feet
