A striking Nigella with delicate sky-blue petals brushed with inky indigo, like hand-painted Delft pottery. Easy to grow and loved by pollinators, it brings soft colour and charm to borders and cutting gardens. The ornate seed pods add texture to dried arrangements long after flowering.

Best sown direct from March or in Autumn for early blooms the following year. If starting indoors, sow 4 – 6 weeks before last frost. Scatter thinly into well-prepared soil, cover lightly, and water in. Germination takes 14–21 days
Thin seedlings to 20cm spacing. Nigella dislikes being transplanted, so direct sowing is best. Drought tolerant once established. Harvest or deadhead regularly for continuous flowers, or leave seed pods to mature for drying. Final height 50cm.
