LINUM SEEDS

The Linum genus, commonly known as Flax, is a graceful and versatile member of the Linaceae family. These annuals and perennials are celebrated for their delicate, star-shaped flowers in shades of blue, white, pink, or yellow, which bloom profusely from late spring through summer. Linum adds a light, naturalistic charm to borders, wildflower meadows, and cottage gardens.

Native to temperate regions of Europe, Asia, and North Africa, Linum thrives in well-drained soils and sunny locations. These low-maintenance plants are drought-tolerant and perfect for pollinator-friendly gardens. Popular species include Linum usitatissimum, or Common Flax, known for its historical significance in producing linen and linseed oil, and Linum perenne, or Perennial Flax, prized for its delicate blue flowers and long blooming period.

The Linum genus combines beauty, functionality, and ecological value, making it an excellent choice for gardeners seeking easy-care plants that support pollinators and bring a touch of elegance to their landscapes.
