FREE: Organic ✽ BLANKET FLOWER ✽ 10 seeds

The listing, Organic ✽ BLANKET FLOWER ✽ 10 seeds has ended.

Blanket Flower is a beautiful, long-blooming perennial. This is a chance to sow seeds over winter & enjoy this beauty in your garden. They do reproduce well and even re-seed themselve if left to naturalize. They prefer a sunny site, but will bloom in part shade & have been drought tolerant in my yard. I believe the "strong shall survive" in my garden. You will appreciate my motto! Dried seed-heads are a lovely addition to pot pourie, adding a delightful spicy scent.
