Nursery contributed plant descriptions

This Victorian antique flax is easy on the eyes, its clouds of pure white satiny blooms with dark pink eyes wave atop stems as thin and strong as wire. Sow direct in early spring, it blooms spring to summer and combines beautifully with other hardy annuals such as linaria, nigella, poppies and more.
