This cultivar's greatest strength lies in its flexibility. Direct sowing outdoors is not just possible but recommended, and you can stagger plantings every two to four weeks throughout spring and summer for continuous bloom. The plants tolerate transplant disturbance poorly, so direct sowing saves time and trouble while producing stronger, sturdier specimens. Fall sowing delivers especially early spring flowers, giving you an extra season's worth of blooms.
Love-in-a-mist flowers are grown for their ornamental appeal in gardens and as fresh or dried cut flowers. The delicate, finely textured blooms with their distinctive feathery foliage make them popular in floral arrangements and cottage garden compositions.
