Product Description
Mr Fothergills Love in a Mist Nigella Miss Jekyll Seeds (Nigella damascena) are a classic cottage-garden favourite, valued for their airy flowers and distinctive seed heads. This well-known variety produces elegant blue blooms held above fine, fern-like foliage, creating a soft, textured effect that blends beautifully with other annuals and perennials.
As the flowers fade, striking spiky seed pods develop, extending visual interest into late summer and making an excellent addition to dried flower arrangements. Easy to grow and low maintenance, Nigella Miss Jekyll thrives in full sun and well-drained soil, performing reliably whether sown in borders, beds or containers. Regular sowing ensures a continuous display, while autumn sowings often flower earlier the following year.
