LOVE-IN-A-MIST
Nigella damascena
Nigella has been grown in gardens for some 4
centuries, acquiring such folk names as "Loveentangle",
"Hair-of-Venus" and “Jack-in-prison".
These names all describe how the masses of fine
lacy foliage provide soft net-like baskets for the
flowers.Intriguing striped seed pods balloon
out and dry well. Very easy. D.S. Will re-seed.
Poor soil O.K.
