HOW TO GROW
Sowing: Direct sow in late fall or early spring, planting just below the surface of the soil. This species does not transplant well.
Growing: Water occasionally, controlling weeds to allow the seedlings to become established. Full growth and flowering usually does not occur until the second season of growth. Mature plants tolerate drought well, but flourish with occasional watering. Unless the blue flax seeds are being harvested, cut back the plant after flowering to allow for new growth next season.
Harvesting: These blossoms do not perform well as cut flowers, and are best enjoyed outdoors.
Seed Saving: Allow the seed pods to dry completely on the stem; break them open to collect the flat, dark seeds. Store these blue flax flower seeds in a cool, dry place.

This is an outstanding plant for shade. The seeds had a high germination rate and produced an abundance of flowers on strong plants

I fell in love with these brilliant blue flowers several years ago. They are not often avaiable in stores, so I was happy to find a place to order. They were quickly shipped to me and I will plant them when the weather is right and enjoy them for years to come. Beautiful blooms on a nice plant!
