Description

Stunning gentian-blue flowers are produced on short stems, daily from midsummer onwards. The dazzling flowers fade by afternoon but are replaced by fresh ones each morning. In well-drained soil this plant can self-seed making stunning drifts with time.

Sowing Advice

For best results, sow immediately onto a good soil-based compost. Cover the seeds with fine grit or compost to approximately their own depth. They can be sown at any time, and germination can sometimes be quicker if kept at 15 to 20 degrees C. We sow most seeds in an unheated greenhouse and wait for natural germination, as many seeds have built-in dormancy mechanisms, often waiting for natural spring germination, hence giving them a full season of growth.
