With its cup-shaped, vivid-blue flowers and low growth, Baby Blue Eyes makes a delicate yet striking cover for lightly shaded borders and edgings. Let it peek out between the spaces of a white picket fence for a country garden effect. Let it spread out by itself beneath trees with open canopies or group with other shade-tolerant companions like its cousin Five-Spot (Nemophila maculata) and Toadflax (Linaria maroccana). Ideal in openings between trees and shrubs. Below 6,500 ft.
Available in single packets and as bulk wildflower seeds.
