About

Grown from bulbs these have proven tough and a great a garden variety, needing very little care

Growing notes

I've found these easy to grow and they reward with a beautiful blue flower in the spring, they require little care once established, they've survived in thick grass and under shady thimbleberry, and they make a great addition to the native meadowscape. My only challenge with them so far is they haven't been easy to start from seed, all of mine were grown from bulb transfers, original bulbs purchased from NW meadowscapes.
