Love-in-a-Mist Transformer


Product Description
Love-in-a-Mist 'Transformer'
Nigella orientalis
This unique novelty deserves a spot in every flower arranger’s garden. Plants have airy, wispy foliage and feature small, golden yellow flowers that remind us of Clematis tangutica. Petals turn down to show off a wild seed pod that curls into the shape of a court jester’s hat. These fun pods are great for wearables and dry well for crafting.

How to Grow:

Harvesting/Vase Life:
Harvest flowers when fully open. Vase life is generally 1 week, especially if you add preservative to the water. Use the pods fresh or dried in bouquets; dried ones last almost indefinitely. To dry, simply hang upside down in a warm, dry place out of bright light for 2 weeks.
