Flowers , Nigella 'Persian Jewels' - A Multi-Colour Mix (Spring or Autumn Sow)

Nigella damascena, Love-in-a-Mist - 'Multi-Colour Blend', This hardy annual waltzes into the garden in spring or autumn & instantly acts like it’s been there for centuries — which, to be fair, it has, charming English plots since the 1600s. It earns its “Love in a Mist” nickname with a delightful tangle of airy, fern fine foliage that wraps each puffed bloom in a dreamy haze. Then flowers burst open in a joyful mix of white, pink, rose red, mauve, blue & purple, perched on straw flower like petals that look too pretty to be real, & just when you think it’s done showing off, it produces quirky, ballooned seed pods that are as decorative as the blooms. Growing to  45 cm, it’s easy, dependable, & an absolute star in a vase — bringing, history, & a little garden magic where it grows, Seed Count Approx - 150 avg
