These came from a seed package, I'm sure, but I can't ID them. A couple
of them came up with the blue petals (5), another just came up with the
white petals (20).
12" - 18" tall
Green-purple fruit appeared right after flower.
Many thanks. (BTW, this is South Texas.)
I know! I know! [jumping up & down waving my hand]
They're a Nigella species, commonly known as love-in-a-mist, and are
an annual here (SW PA, USDA zone 6a). Mine reseed *very* freely and
would take over if not thinned. But they're really lovely in large
groups.
