Don’t let the “large-flowered” in the common name mislead you - this little lovely’s floral display is dainty and demure. Fine textured, grass-like foliage appears in the spring and is followed by whorls of bright-blue and white, little snapdragon-like flowers. This sweet annual gives a lovely brush of delicate color to your spring garden. A nice plant for attracting bees. Will reseed if in a spot it likes.
