Nigella

Nigella flowering like mad! Such an easy plant to grow and it takes care of itself in a sunny position. Self seeds too which I don't mind. 🤓

All mine have gone to seed but I want to move them to another patch, when can I cut the seed pods off?? Do you know?

I'll tag you in another pic to show - the seed pods need to be brown and split ideally. 👍🏼 @loopylauz

Gorgeous photo Richard 😀

Lovely colour Richard love the foliage 👌👌

I love these from any angle💜

Always love to see these appear in my garden , your's look fantastic 😆

Beautiful.Always remind me of my Nana's garden

Lovely show 👌🏻

Who ever said it an easy plant to grow are fibbing 😂😂😂 it's taken me three years I've just seen two flowers 🙈🙈 nigella envy 👌

Ahhhh. Love in a mist .... makes me think of my grandparents garden

Had a good casual wander round the garden this morning in the early sun, and this greeted me.... 😊 #nigella #loveinamist

They are aren't they Ang! I've already started collecting from the first round of flowers, so I'm gonna have loads. I think I'm just gonna throw them all over the place 😍 @angeldawn

Really? I didn't know that. Do they go for the seed then? It's in the front garden currently which doesn't get much bird attention but I've collected seed so plan to try sowing out the back 😀 @linfoster

@linfoster @richard.spicer.7906 @angeldawn you've sold me, I take it I must not notice these when I'm out and about there stunning thanks @richard.spicer.7906 your making me at flowers in a brilliant new lifht😜👍🏼❗️seed swap anyone next year 😜

Here's one that's already ripened and split, and if you look closely you can see the black seeds inside.

Great photo.

Thanks @play 😀

Here you go @loopylauz 😀

Fab thanks I'll hold out a bit longer then 😆

The Nigella seedheads are almost ripe now. When the pods start to split at the top, empty the black seeds inside into a dry free container to store. Next year, these can be sown directly onto the soil for another great display 😀

Stunning pic❗️👀👍🏼

So pretty

Thanks @janric !

Love nigella . I try to leave it to seed on my flagstones as it is so pretty. Ricgard your photography is fantastic.

Thanks @junebensted for the compliments 😊. Agree competely, they can look beautiful growing randomly in all sorts of places, and are so easy to grow in any garden.
