Day 316: Love-in-a-mist is a garden favorite which rewards long after its season is through if the gardener picks the unopened seed pods with long stems and hangs them upside-down to dry. The fine leaves will curl around the balloon-like pod creating a lacy effect for dried arrangments. In the bed, the flowers may be white, yellow, pink or even light blue, and are lovely when grown among Centaurea montana. Easy to grow, Nigella can be started indoors to prolong the blooming season.
