Tray of 3 or 6 plants
Lovely baby-blue flowers to tall 150cm stems in July and August. This short-lived perennial will give about 2 years of flowering then need to be replaces (so let it self seed if possilbe or collect some seeds). Alternatively treat as a biennial and plant in summer/autumn for dramatic displays the following year.
Attracts honey bees and wild bees, partucularly mason bees. Works well in either a garden border or wild area.
