Lake Valley Seed Flax, Blue Heirloom, 0.5g

Blue Flax

New flowers open each day, creating a lovely blue potpourri of petals at the base of the plant.  A rugged perennial, despite its delicate appearance. This seed packet weighs .50g.

Planting

Sow in a sunny location with average soil in early spring. Scatter seeds thinly and cover lightly with soil. Keep soil consistently moist until young plants reach about 2". For earlier blossoms, sow seeds in a well-prepared bed in late fall so they can experience the winter cold cycle.

Note

Plant from seeds sown in the spring will bloom in their second season. Cut back tops by 1/3 after flowering to encourage a second set of flowers in the fall. Very drought tolerant once established.
