| If you love cutflowers but don't enjoy the work of feeding, watering, deadheading, and otherwise fussing over the plants, Blue Angel is the annual you MUST grow! These blooms begin in late spring and continue all summer and right into fall, with long stems perfect for the vase and wide-open two-tone blue petals. And the plant is virtually carefree, thriving in any well-drained soil in full sun! The flowers measure 2 inches across, with bright blue petals starred with an eye-catching navy eye. They arise by the hundred on dwarf plants just 10 to 12 inches high and 10 inches wide. An award-winner in Europe, this powerhouse of a little annual is just perfect for your containers, sunny beds, borders, and edging! You simply can't find this kind of flower power elsewhere! Blue Angel thrives in poor, dry, and sandy soils as well as good garden loam, and no seed is easier to grow. Direct-sow it in early spring and do not transplant. Within 6 to 8 weeks the little plants will be in full bloom, and they'll stay that way for months on end! If you like Blue Angel, try its magenta sibling, Rose Angel. And combine these Catchflies with everything from Shasta Daisies to Floss Flowers in the sunny annual bed! Space plants about 8 to 10 inches apart and get ready for a nonstop color show! Pkt is 250 seeds. |
