NIGELLA SEEDS

The Nigella genus, commonly known as Love-in-a-Mist, is a delicate and charming member of the Ranunculaceae family. These annuals are celebrated for their finely divided, feathery foliage and unique, star-shaped flowers in shades of blue, white, pink, or purple, which bloom from late spring to summer. After flowering, the decorative, balloon-like seed pods add further interest to gardens and floral arrangements. Nigella brings a whimsical, cottage-garden appeal to borders and wildflower meadows.

Native to southern Europe, North Africa, and Asia, Nigella thrives in well-drained soils and sunny locations. These easy-to-grow plants are perfect for direct sowing and naturalising in informal garden settings. Popular species such as Nigella damascena are particularly admired for their intricate flowers and ornamental seed pods.

The Nigella genus combines beauty, versatility, and ease of cultivation, making it an excellent choice for gardeners seeking delicate, pollinator-friendly plants with a touch of romance and charm.
