Flax Blue Seeds | Northern Seeds

Blue flax is a delicate, graceful perennial with small, sky-blue flowers that bloom continuously through spring. Perfect for naturalized gardens, it attracts pollinators and blends beautifully with other wildflowers.

Perennial. Flax requires cold stratification for successful germination. Place seeds in a damp paper towel in the fridge for 3–4 weeks, then sow indoors 4–8 weeks before the last frost. Alternately, direct seed in the late fall or early spring. Plant in full sun, spacing plants 6–8 inches apart. Blue Flax prefers well-drained soil and is drought-tolerant once established. It requires little maintenance once planted and may self-seed naturally.
