How to Create a Black Magic Garden

Having a Black Magic Garden doesn’t necessarily mean that you must go all in with horror vibes! It can be a mix of dark and light tones that exude mysterious vibes.

The first thing you need to do is to pick the right plants – the ones with dark foliage work the best. Do not miss ‘Black Mondo’ grass, ‘Queen of Night’ tulips, ‘Black Lace’ elderberry, and ‘Black Scallop’ ajuga!

Also, add a bit of a variety too – some  trees, shrubs, perennials, and annuals with varying colors and textures to create a diverse space.

Creating a stone alter and growing plants around it will add that ‘spooky vibe’ for sure! Also, do not miss adding gargoyles, mythical creatures, or mystical figures.

You can also add figurines of witches, wizards, or fairy tale characters to add drama to the black magic garden.

When we are talking about black magic, how it can ever be complete without a spider web dangling across trees and shrubs?

Also, pick up wind chimes with deeper, haunting tones and hang them at different corners of the yard to add an auditory element to the spooky atmosphere.

Pick plastic skeleton shapes and carve eerie faces into tree trunks, too!
