Cynoglossum amabile


HEIRLOOM. A favorite old-fashioned annual that bears an abundance of deep, bright blue blooms produced in loose sprays on stiff upright stems all summer long. Growing to 16"-18¿ tall, this biennial (grow as an annual) features attractive gray-green foliage. Makes an unforgettable sight when planted with spring flowering bulbs. This was a 1939 All-America Selections Winner, and is still popular today. Perfect for naturalizing and in rock gardens. A good cut flower and eye-catching garden border.
