Lace Flower Seeds

Airy, romantic, and delightfully wild, Didiscus caeruleus, or Lace Flower, brings a soft, cloud-like texture to both gardens and bouquets. Beloved by pollinators and lightly scented, its umbel-shaped blooms in lavender, pink, and white look like the smaller, dreamy cousin of Queen Anne’s Lace or Bishop’s Flower, floating on tall and slender stems above deeply lobed foliage. It’s a floral-industry favorite because it adds that wispy look designers crave, elevating everything from casual market bunches to wedding arrangements.

• Airy, lace-like blooms add a soft, romantic texture
• Cut-flower filler for dahlias, zinnias, and other focal flowers
• Lightly scented blooms attract pollinators
• Long-lasting display of flowers

Didiscus is an easy annual to grow in all USDA zones, simply sow seeds where you want them to bloom, cover with soil, and keep the soil evenly moist until germination. Give it sun and room to stretch, though Lace Flower does best in moderate summer areas and is not a fan of hot, dry climates. Adding a delicate contrast to their bold color and form, didiscus will hold its own alongside other annuals like zinnias and cosmos. For the cutting garden, it’s an exceptional filler flower, harvested in bunches to tuck around focal blooms like dahlias or sunflowers, and will create the most romantic, meadowy bouquets. Deadhead regularly and you can enjoy up to two months of continuous bloom, keeping both your garden and vase full of airy, lace-like charm.
