A packet contains 1/4 teaspoon of seed, ~1,100 seeds.

A plant is a well established 1st year rosette. This plant will bloom once and then die, but allowing them to self-sow is a good way to establish a patch.

These are local ecotype seeds grown at Edgewood Nursery, original stock came from the Wild Seed Project

This tough native wildflower will grow in rocky and gravelly places with minimal soil, their small delicate blooms bring some color to the harshest spots in the landscape. First year plants take the form of leafy rosette of pretty blue tinged leaves. This species is biennial, meaning they will not bloom in their first year, the second year they will bloom and then die, so leave the seeds to mature so they can self-sow. Seeds require 30+ days of cold moist stratification, either sow outdoors in fall/winter or stratify in the fridge for 30 days. Full sun to Part Shade. For more info on stratification click here
