Love-In-A-Mist, Miss Jekyll Mix
Hardy annual. The legend of one of history’s greatest garden designers has been forever crystallized in this stunning Nigella variety. Gertrude Jekyll is famous for her painterly garden designs, but few know that she was also a highly accomplished plant breeder! Jekyll bred this gorgeous love-in-a-mist variety, and it remains a gardener’s and cut flower grower’s favorite. The foliage is like filigree and the star-like blooms are like smoky gems in mellow jewel tones of rose, sky blue, dark blue, and crystalline white. An old standard that is still among the very finest late-spring flowering plants.
