Sisyrinchium Idahoense var. Macounii

Sisyrinchium Idahoense var. Macounii - Moody Blues. This is an upright clumping perennial that is native to North America. It is a very showy wildflower with intense bright blue-violet petals and a yellow eye, with long stems surrounded by green grassy foliage. It blooms from May to July bringing a first year of flowering, and if sheared back, it will give a 2nd bloom. This plant is vigorous and easy to grow with no severe pest or disease problems. Attracts honeybees and other beneficial pollinators. It is said to be the tallest of its genus and touting the biggest flowers. With the wonderful intense blue of the petals and the yellow eye, it makes a gorgeous contrast with the green foliage, and will definitely bring pizazz to any garden.

I urge anyone buying seed to do their homework on germination, I have not raised and cannot raise many of these plants as I am sub-tropics here in St Augustine, Florida. All seed are NOT alike!  There are so many different factors in germination and not doing a search is throwing your money away. I want everyone to be successful when growing your flowers from seed it is the most rewarding experience in Gardening and you can do it, if you give the seed what it needs to grow. I always check 3 sites of info to choose how I will go about it. It is not hard to do, if you do it right!

SEED GERMINATION TIP!!!!!!!

ONLY GERMINATE A SMALL PORTION AT A TIME.

DON'T PUT ALL YOUR MONKEYS IN A BARREL.

Good Luck and Happy Planting!!!!
