Thank you for suggestions. I found a good source from a company called
Heirloom and Perennial Ltd so will be trying a flax patch next year.
I live on the fens where there's a wide range of vegetable and other
crops but I haven't seen the attractive blue of flax locally for quite a
few years now. I wonder what areas it's favoured in as an agricultural
crop.


Curious, because it's grown around Cambridge. Not a lot, but there
are fields of it.
