Wildflowers - Flax Seeds
Some people use flax seeds for health needs, but these are best used for planting out for flowers. Flax seeds are easy to grow, and quickly produce a multitude of tiny plants that quickly start blooming with vibrant colors. Blue flowers are harder to come by in nature, so you will want some Blue Flax in your garden with its intense blue flowers. Still rarer are red flowers, and the Scarlet Flax does a really good job of filling a niche in the red part of the spectrum. These are annuals, but produce seeds in their first year which can reseed themselves for another show the following year.
