This delightful cottage garden favorite adds a smidge of goth to any garden! Shiny, inky-black, dainty, fragrant, 1” flowers with yellow eyes bloom in profusion year round, for months on compact 8" tall plant. Charmingly small but mighty, it’s perfect as an edger, in containers, or peaking out of the cracks of your rockery & pavers. Cut it back after flowering & it renews itself. It loves to reseed, too!
