Don't be fooled by the common name- it's not a giant. This plant has adorable, dainty flowers containing a blue color that is not common in flowers. It looks best when planted in swaths or patches rather than individual plants. Usually found in dry, rocky or upland sites. This native annual prefers well drained soils and can reseed well if conditions are ideal. Attracts many native bees, bumblebees and butterflies.
