Polka Dot Blend Bachelor Button

The bluest of blue and pinkest of pink flowers in nature, these bachelor buttons are a must in any garden.  I originally knew nothing about them but when I started seed saving my grandmother, Donna Macleod asked me if I had her favorite flowers, bachelor buttons.  I can see why she loves them.  Easy to grow, love the challenge of tough soils these flowers are great as border or fill in plants for any garden.  The origins of the plant are hard to pin down but there are traces of bachelor buttons in the tomb of Tutankhamen in Egypt.
