Five Spot (Nemophila Maculata) - Create a lovely carpet of delicate blooms from wildflower seed! Five Spot Nemophila Maculata is a annual wild flower that easily and quickly grows from wild flower seeds. It is a hardy annual that grows very, very fast and blooms profusely, and it dies back with the first frost of fall. Although an annual, Five Spot may re-seed if the seeds fall on bare ground. The 1 inch, 5-petaled flowers are very attractive, white with vivid purple spots at the tip of each petal. The foliage is very attractive too.

LATIN NAME

Nemophila Discoidalis

Pennie Black (Nemophila Discoidalis) - Start Pennie Black seeds for this lovely low-growing annual that has a trailing habit. Nemophila Pennie Black, also known as Nemophila Baby Black Eyes, is a superb, easy to grow annual with masses of small, 1 inch deep violet to black flowers that are edged with white. The Victorians loved this tiny two-toned flower with light, airy foliage. The Nemophila Penny Black plant only reaches 4 inches in height and is slightly trailing, so it is perfect for containers, baskets, and window boxes, or use it as an edging for borders or a ground cover plant.

Nemophila Penny Black seeds can be sown directly outdoors in a prepared seedbed. Lightly cover the flower seed with soil and keep moist. Nemophila seeds can be started indoors in the late winter for transplanting outside once frost season is over. In milder climates, Nemophila Penny Black will reseed itself for the following season. Nemophila care includes deadheading the spent flowers to promote continual flowers and following a regular watering schedule to keep the plant from drying out.
