Nigella (Nigella damascena)
Nigella is an airy plant and lively blooms range in color from red, blue, violet and white. This early bloomer self sows easily. Nigella makes a great cut-flower and dried seed pods have a unique look in dried arrangements. Also known as Love-in-a-Mist, this hearty and easy-to-grow plant will become an instant favorite and garden mainstay.
Origin: We were given the parent seed of our nigella by a friend who volunteers at community garden in Tokyo, Japan while we were on a trip to visit family there.
(Approximately 50 seeds per packet)
Planting Instructions: sow a group of 3 seeds every 8" by barely covering with soil. Full sun. Thin to 1 every 8" when plants are 3" tall.
