I’ve been longing for a blue flower that I don’t have to replant every year. I’m also going to try my hand at spinning the fiber once I’ve retted the stalks. Thank you!

I absolutely love this blue flax and will have it in my gardens forever. The blooms are so gorgeous and it fills in areas that don't have the best soil.
