Brought to America from Europe in the 17th century, Blue Boy was bred from the native European flower that still brightens our gardens today. Hardy 2-3’ annual plants have silvery green foliage with the vibrant true blue colored flowers gardeners hunt for. Bursting with color, Blue Boy is long lasting once cut and keeps its color when dried. Enjoy the petals in salads, decorating baked goods, or dried for tea.
Flower seeds tend to have lower germination rates than vegetable seeds, please plan accordingly.
