DESCRIPTION
Love-in-a-Mist - It is also referred to as Devil-in-a-Bush.
This flower works great as a cut and dried flower. Love-in-a-Mist produces seed pods that can be dried and presented in flower arrangements. It will thrive during mild summers but will not come into full bloom in hotter climates. Nigella flowers belong to the Ranunculaceae family and are related to Anemones, Clematis, Aquilegia and Buttercup. Make sure your Love-in-a-Mist flowers receive at least 6 hours of sunlight daily. Seed should be sown on top of well-drained soils in the spring months, if your region experiences harsh winters. For temperate regions, the seed can be planted during the fall planting season. Blooming can be prolonged if the flowers are pinched back or if the seed is spread every 2-3 weeks during the planting season. The predominant colors in this mix are typically blue and white.

How to Grow and Care for Love-in-a-Mist:
Nigella (Nigella damascena) earns the common name "love-in-a-mist" because of the tangle of ferny, fennel-like foliage that forms a mist around the flowers. Once you see N. damascena in bloom, you will always recognize it by its unique swirl of airy bracts and delicate foliage.
The foliage of N. damascena plant is ferny, the flowers are fluffy, and the seed pods are intriguing. Best known for the vivid blue-blossom variety, love-in-a-mist also has cultivars that bloom in purples, pinks, and white. Plant these adaptable flowers in the spring or even in the fall. The plants grow to nearly two feet tall and bloom for several weeks, starting in the late spring. When they reseed on their own, you'll have blooms through fall.
How to Grow Love-in-a-Mist From Seed
The seeds are best direct-sown outdoors which avoids disturbing the roots during transplanting.
Seeds can be sown from early spring throughout the summer and even into fall in climates with mild winters where the plants might be able to overwinter.
- When sowing seeds in early spring, do so when the soil temperature reaches 60 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Scatter the seeds in a sunny location. Rake them in. You don't need to cover the seeds with soil, but they do need to be pressed down slightly. Cover lightly with soil because light is required for germination.
- Keep the soil moist. Germination takes from two to three weeks.
- Thin seedlings so they're spaced eight to ten inches apart.
Love-in-a-Mist Care
Love-in-a-mist is a wonderful cottage garden plant and a great filler. The airy foliage makes a nice complement to broader-leaved plants.
Nigella is a short-lived plant and probably won't make it through an entire growing season. For continuous blooms throughout the summer, make succession plantings every three weeks. Once your plants have begun to scatter seeds on their own, you won't need to continue sowing.
Light
For the most blooms, plant love-in-a-mist in full sun; it will do fine in partial shade but will produce fewer blooms.
Soil
N. damascena is not overly particular about soil quality, but it will grow and bloom best in nutrient-rich, fertile soil. When it grows in native areas, the plant prefers moist sandy soil, though it doesn't like to sit in wet soil and does best with a neutral soil pH. Love-in-a-mist can tolerate somewhat dry conditions as well as other types of soil, including loam, clay-loam, and gravelly.
Water
Love-in-a-mist likes consistent moisture, Water it slowly but deeply until the top couple of inches of the soil are well-saturated.
Temperature and Humidity
Sow in the early spring months when the soil temperature has reached 60 degrees Fahrenheit. The plant thrives in temperatures between 65 and 72 degrees Fahrenheit.
Fertilizer
Add a general-purpose fertilizer to the soil when planting Nigella damascena, and then fertilize it once a month afterward. For the amount to use, follow the product label instructions.
