We think that this popular wildflower deserves a more fitting name like 'Azure Lady's Fan'! Each colorful bloom displays three crisp, fan-like petals, with charming yellow stamens and purple downy fuzz. Delightful and unique! The flowers each bloom for one bright day, then make room for the morrow's fresh batch. A must for any wildflower garden!
