Owner Response: Hi Heather, thanks for the feedback. As an unrefined heirloom, the blueness does vary a bit, but it shows best if plants are completely dry. Some signs that plants are dry is to look for seed heads to be nodding and snap the lower part of the stem. It sounds like your weather may have played a part in preventing them from drying too.
Never turned blue

Owner Response: Hi Bonnie, thanks for the feedback. We have seen some variability in the color on this unrefined heirloom. I so sorry you didn't see the beautiful steely blue others have. These types of grains are rarely grown and we haven't found any research indicating a soil condition what would encourage more blue color. I will contact our grower though and update you if she has any tips.

Owner Response: Roxanne,
This wheat is an open-pollinated heirloom and not a hybrid, so you can safely save the seed. Happy growing!

Brett Babbitt from TX
Owner Response: Hi Brett,
We expect plants to barely grow in the short days of fall and winter. As daylight wanes below 10 hours a day plants virtually cease visible growth.
Happy gardening!
Grow them!

Owner Response: Hi Kathie,
Yes, steel-blue with black awns (whiskers) is what you can expect from this heirloom. Bright blue is fairly rare in nature and few flowers display a true, bright blue. We hope you enjoy this novel, ornamental wheat.
