Default May 23- - 09A_1722_Blue-Flax.jpg

Linum lewisii (aka Linum perenna); perennial Blue Flax.

This is my favorite blue in the garden, and it is at its best here in
May before most other stuff has opened. I started this stand from seed
a couple of years ago, and it is now starting to expand itself
naturally. Although most sites claim "full sun", this location is no
better than part-sun, and it seems to be happy enough with that.
