GROWN IN SCOTLAND by Seeds of Scotland
Nigella damascena
These easy-to-grow hardy annuals are a cottage garden classic, producing beautiful, lacy, star-shaped flowers in shades of light and dark blue, as well as white.
Once the flowers have faded, they develop distinctive, architectural seed pods that make a striking addition to bouquets and dried flower arrangements. The pods can also be harvested for seed, ready to sow again the following year.

Sow: Sep / Feb-Apr
Flowering: May-Jul / Jul-Oct
Height: ~100 to 120cm (require staking).
