After two years in the making, it finally blossomed this month!
The flower is indeed a deep velvety black and the white face is truly stark against the petals.
More properly known as Asarum maximum, this lovely little flower is native to China where it is an endangered species in the wild. Fortunately, it grows well in the Pacific Northwest, although this particular specimen grows slowly in a pot in a cool but sunny location in the garage.
