Blue Flax : Linum lewisii

Plant type: perennial, herbaceous plant
Height: 1.5'

Light: full to part sun
Soil: dry

PPL: no

Tall and slender, like a flowering wild grass.

A good choice for sunny and dry areas as it tolerates those conditions. Flower petals drop daily in afternoon heat, replaced the next day by new flowers in an endless stream of nature being awesome.

Adds mid-height and flowers of variable lavender-blue to create a cottage garden vibe. Named for North American explorer Meriwether Lewis.
