detailed seed-starting info below

Profusion of four-petaled flower, sky blue with a white center, on wiry-stems with thread-like foliage. Reportedly prefers cool weather, so not sure how they'll do for us in Houston.

We're just trying this plant for the first time this year; it hasn't found a permanent place in our gardens yet. (click here for a full list)
