Now that the words 'Black Lace' caught your eye, what do you think this discussion is all about? If you are thinking sexy lingerie you will just have to keep reading. It's not what you think, its about a plant by the name of Sambucus Black Lace, Black Lace for short. You can see an example of the plant on the link I provided. It is a very unusual looking plant and will add a lot of interest to your yard and garden. The name is also a good conversation starter! And as you just realized, it's an attention grabber also!

The "black lace" certainly brought my attention thinking it was about sexy lingerie. You fooled me there!

It is just to prove the point that the 'right' title will catch the eye!

@AbbyGreenhill So true, I wish I had the brains to find the "catchy title'.

@marlina In this case, a slightly 'off' sense of humor helped me.

I wasn't thinking of sexy underwear. Honestly! I was thinking of the British group Black Lace who sung such unforgettable songs such as Agadoo.

First time ever I listen to them:
"What's a nice pineapple like you doing in a place like this?" Good question. I uploaded it but YOU are watching it, now that's tragic. This camp and bad and...

Great title, I thought you were talking about lingerie. The flowers of sambucus are very good to make a syrup and also to make fritters.

@AbbyGreenhill A few minutes ago my niece called to tell me that today was the first sales day in Milan and she has bought expensive black lace lingerie. Well, she is young, I do not want to know how much expensive.

I must either be old or conservative. I wondered about the context, but I didn't flash on sexy lingerie. I admit I'd never heard of the plant!

That's a beautiful flower. I may check into it to see if it would live in our area. I have picked plants thinking they would survive only to find out they didn't.

I thought you were talking about black lace fabric, lol. I do love lace detailing for clothes! (Doesn't have to be lingerie). But, the plant looks pretty.
