Blue Flax [Linum Perenne] is a perennial flower with pretty little sky-blue flowers, 1/2 inch to 1 inch across bloom on light and graceful arching branches. Blue flax stands up well to heat, but it prefers cool coastal summers, and it will bloom longer in cool coastal climates.

Blue Flax [Linum Perenne] is showy, every morning it covers itself with blue flowers, hundreds per day. The leaves themselves stay at 18 inches or so but the flowers arise above making a total arching display 3 feet or so high. Prefers full sun, and loose, dry soil, but it is very adaptable. Blue Flax is a good garden flower.
