Romantic, ruffled, and wrapped in a mist of ferny foliage, Nigella damascena ‘Miss Jekyll Dark Blue’ is an old-fashioned cottage garden favorite with true blue charm. Also known as Love-in-a-Mist, this easy annual produces intricate deep blue flowers surrounded by delicate, airy bracts that make each bloom look like it is floating in its own little cloud.

Perfect for borders, cutting gardens, meadow-style plantings, and informal cottage beds, Miss Jekyll Dark Blue Nigella brings soft texture and rich color in early summer. It pairs beautifully with poppies, calendula, larkspur, foxgloves, sweet peas, bachelor buttons, and ornamental grasses. After flowering, decorative seed pods add another season of interest and are wonderful for fresh or dried arrangements.

Plant Nigella damascena ‘Miss Jekyll Dark Blue’ in full sun with well-drained soil, and sow in succession for a longer display. Light, lacy, and wonderfully nostalgic, this is a flower that makes the garden feel instantly more storied. Explore more airy annuals in our Nigella collection.
