Nemophila menziesii

Baby-Blue-Eyes

These dwarf American wildflowers are prized for their many bell-shaped flowers. Their small white, blue, purple, or spotted flowers bloom continuously spring to summer when the weather is cool. Tolerate lots of moisture. Use in wildflower and rock gardens, as a bulb or ground cover, and in beds and borders. Mostly sold as seeds. Sow in light sandy soil by broadcasting seed in fall where winters are mild and in spring elsewhere.

Each white to sky-blue flower has a white or yellow-stained center, or is spotted darker blue or purple-black. Tolerates some shade. Best if sheltered from wind. Self sows.
