Nigella 'Miss Jekyll Blue' is easy to grow and reliable. The sky-blue flowers bloom in June, making it a nice companion plant for roses and Asiatic lilies. The seed pods are used in dried flower arrangements, and the seeds are edible.
Love-in-a-mist is an heirloom flower that has been grown in gardens since the 1600's. In Color in the Garden, Nori and Sandra Pope say, "Nigella damascena 'Miss Jekyll' is our most valued blue self-seeder." They use it to fill in the gaps between other plants.
