In the garden it spreads like a cloud over spaces left empty (spent spring bulbs) and ties everything together as it does in cut flower arrangements both fresh and dried. Plant has many branched, spangled with tiny, dainty, rose-like white flowers in summer.
Culture: Start indoors and set transplants outdoors in well-drained soil where plants will have room to spread. Maintain moisture. Seed Saving: After blooming, each flower will develop a small round seed pod. As soon as the pods dry and contain mature black seed, shake them over a container to remove the seed. The entire plant can also be cut several inches above ground level and hung upside down, to allow the seed to fall as the plant dries. Notes:

CategoriesFDL Seed Library
The FDL Seed Library is a collection of open-pollinated and heirloom seeds that you can borrow to plant and grow at home. By saving seeds as a community we help create local seed stocks that are better acclimated to our climate and which support an abundant and genetically diverse landscape.
We ask that seeds are “returned” by harvesting seeds from a plant or two that you grow. Donated seeds will help to add diversity to our collection. Archives
