attractive cottage garden annuals that do occur as casuals frequently + seed heads popular with flower arrangers. |

| | | Re: Seed head for identification please. I have just today, popped open a few pods and spread the seeds around for a good show next summer.
A very easy and successful hardy annual.

| | | Re: Seed head for identification please. The flowers are a beautiful shade of blue, and if happy will seed themselves around the garden. I wouldn't be without them. |
