This easy grow annual plant has it all; pretty, fern like foliage, handsome velvety flowers, & eye-catching seed-heads! Easy to grow by sowing direct into beds & borders. Rich blue flowers sit aloft the lacy fine-cut foliage. These are followed by quirky, dark violet seed pods, extending the interest of this border star well into autumn. Nigella ' Midnight' is perfect for cutting & using fresh or dried. Remove dead heads to prolong the flowering season.
