Bachelor's Button, Blue Boy

Incredibly electrifying blue, double flowers on tall 3-feet plants bloom all season. Very easy to grow. It is a self-seeding annual, so you will not have to replant. The name is a nod to an old tradition for men who are “courting” to wear a blue bachelor’s button, stuck into the buttonhole of their jackets.
