Black Cohosh
For the shaded garden, few perennials bring the quiet drama of Black Cohosh. Tall, slender wands of fragrant, creamy-white flowers rise like candles above a mound of deeply cut, dark green leaves through summer, illuminating dim corners and woodland edges. Reaching three to five feet, it makes a graceful vertical exclamation point at the back of a border or naturalized beneath a canopy of trees. A woodland native of eastern North America, it feels right at home in our Midwestern shade and mingles beautifully with hostas, ferns, and astilbe. Give it steady, moderate moisture in part to full shade and it settles in with very little fuss — and as a bonus, browsing deer and rabbits show no interest. It’s a memorable way to layer height, fragrance, and a touch of the wild into shady spaces.
