This plant came up from a packet of seeds I got in a seed swap that were a 'wildflower/annual' mix.
I just love it and will be looking to plant it on purpose in the future

This plant wintersows very well. It looks beautiful planted with Forget-me-nots. I've only had it reseed twice, otherwise, I have to replant it every year.
