Perennial Blue Flax (Linum perenne), sometimes referred to as wild flax or lint, is a graceful, long-blooming perennial known for its delicate sky-blue flowers. Each bloom lasts only a day, but plants produce a steady succession of blossoms from late spring through summer, creating a soft, airy display in gardens and meadows.
Growing 12–24 inches tall, Blue Flax features slender stems and fine-textured foliage that sway beautifully in the breeze. It thrives in sunny, well-drained locations and performs especially well in rock gardens, cottage gardens, prairie plantings, and drought-tolerant landscapes.
This hardy perennial is easy to grow and attracts bees and beneficial pollinators while requiring minimal maintenance once established.
