It is a perennial in the midwest -- flowers like crazy in the spring. It's the blue and white flowers I need, not the yellow coreopsis. Fantastic plant but can't remember what it is. THANKS

Love-in-a-Mist, Nigella damascena.

Thanks -- minute I heard Nigella, knew you were right -- that rang my bell.

Great plant I think, too bad it doesn't flower longer.

They are prodigious seed producers and deadheading spent blossoms will
prolong blooming somewhat, but the dry seedpods are nice when left for
autumn interest and annual reseeding.

No kidding -- they reseed like crazy -- an annual that may as well be called a perennial. I really like the colors.
