Phacelia tanacetifolia

Phacelia flowers produce a generous amount of both nectar and pollen throughout the growing season. 

Phacelia tanacetifolia available in sizes 20g, 100g, and 400g.

Pale, mauve-blue, fragrant flowers unfold like ferns at the top of long leafy stems and attracts bees from miles around. The delicate, lacy foliage bears a resemblance to yarrow. It fits in the vegetable garden as a cover crop or in a garden bed for quirky purple flowers.

Direct sow Purple Tansy seeds at three week intervals and expect a staggered, much extended bloom period. Phacelia grows to 60cm (24") in full sun or part shade. Annual, but often self-seeds if grown for an entire season!
