Additional Details

When to Sow Moody Blue Nigella Seeds

Sow March to July.

Flowers

July to August.

Where to Sow

Sow in shallow rows about 1.5cm (¾") deep. Also, can be   broadcast over wide area and raked in.  Alternatively sow 1-2 seeds per modular tray under glass, and once large enough, plant out in borders.
Please note: Young small seedlings do not like to be transplanted, but modules with established roots will be fine to move to final position. 

What to do Next

Thin out direct sown seedlings as they grow to final spacing of 15-30cm (6-12") apart.

Handy Tip

Cut stems of seed pods before the seed heads fully open and allow seeds to drop. Hang cut stems upside down in a cool, dark, airy, dry place. Once fully dry (typically after a couple of weeks) they can be used in wreaths or dried flower arrangements.
