baby blue eyes
Nemophila menziesii
Overview
Baby blue eyes (Nemophila menziesii) is a delicate, low-growing annual flower with distinctively shaped, sky-blue petals. Each flower has a white center from which the petals emerge which gives the blooms a star-like appearance. This flower commonly grows to heights of 4-6 inches and spreads up to 1 foot in width, making it an ideal choice for ground cover and rock gardens. It blooms from spring into summer and prefers cool, moist soils in full sun or partial shade. Cut flowers have a long vase life and make excellent additions to floral arrangements.
