I have good luck with my white and blue nigella plants self-seeding in the front of the butterfly border. Each year, the initial sowing of plants brings forth a new generation. Today, at half price, I was thrilled to find seeds for a pink variety called Mulberry Rose. It’s always exciting to procure a new variety of a plant you love.

This small flower creates quite a dynamic seedpod. It blooms the size of a quarter, is low-growing, and has delicate foliage. Beautifully rounded and loaded with seeds, the pod dries beautifully for indoor winter arrangements.

The seed packet suggests making successive sowings for continuous bloom. My new Nigella seeds are from Renee’s Garden. I am content in the knowledge that this small blossom will grace my garden for years to come.

HMMM…Might need to think about my garden .

I love the interesting pods the flowers leave behind. Such a contrast, a delicate flower, and a durable large pod.

I’ve seen these around and didn’t know what they were. Love the graceful tendrils of them.

It’s a really pretty flower, very low, and interesting planted in the front of my border. They are delicate in appearance, but surprisingly hardy.
