The dainty umbels of powder blue/lilac blossoms bloom atop branching, upright stems of this lace flower. Plants have plentiful buds but few leaves. This mildly fragrant, long bloomer will flower from mid-summer to fall and grows to 60cm (24") tall. They have a long vase life too, so they are excellent as filler for arrangements or as the star in delicate bouquets.
Annual.
