Nigella damascena 'Miss Jekyll Rose' (not actually a rose!) is a beautiful variety of Nigella prized for its delicate beauty, long bloom time, and rose-pink colored flowers.

Nigella damascena (Love-in-a-mist, Devil in the Bush, Fennel Flower, Jack-in-the-green, Blue Fennel)

The feathery foliage of Nigella Damascena adds a light and airy feel to the plant. It resembles fern fronds or dill fronds, creating a soft backdrop for the blooms. While most commonly blue (light blue to violet), Nigella damascena flowers can also come in white, pink, or pale purple.

The large, showy flower parts that come in various colors are actually sepals, modified leaves, that surround the true flower parts. Petals are tiny and inconspicuous, hidden at the base of the stamens in the center of the flower. The flowers appear to "float" amongst the foliage due to the long, slender flower stalks.

Nigella flowers typically bloom in early summer and may continue sporadically throughout the season, especially if deadheaded regularly. After flowering, Nigella forms equally interesting seed pods. These large, inflated capsules turn brown as they dry and split open to reveal numerous black seeds. They are not only visually appealing but can also be used in dried flower arrangements, adding a touch of whimsy.
