* Note that the registered name of this variety is now 'Mexican Star'. Apparently, the colour of the flowers was not deemed black enough to warrant the former name! Our stock has always produced plants with flowers the colour of dark chocolate but we understand that in poor soil /light conditions, the flowers may lose this intensity of colour.
