Im Dreaming of a Black Garden

I never thought Id have the patience or the fortitude to plant a themed garden, but all the sudden Im thinking about a very dark garden. Ironically, dark gardens need a lot of light: my Black Lace sambucus goes green in the shade but gets very dark in the sun. Hmmmm.

Ive made a list of all the usual dark foliage plants, and I have Timbers lovely little Black Plants bookbut what are your favorites?
