Hardy Annual. This is an easy to grow annual with star-shaped blue flowers along graceful, branching sprays that resemble true Forget-Me-Nots. Seeds should be sown outdoors where they are to grow. Bloom color varies from a dark blue to a powdery blue and white and pink and the foliage is an attractive deep gray-green. A good cut flower and an eye-catching addition to your garden border. An excellent selection for the cottage garden as it has an old-fashioned charm. 'Firmament' is a recommended cultivar which is compact and bushy.
