These Bigflower Selfheal seeds are screened and cleaned to remove chaff and lightweight empty seeds. This compact perennial herb spreads gently via short rhizomes and forms neat leafy clumps. Its upright flower spikes carry multiple large violet-purple funnel-shaped blooms in late spring to summer. The plant has thick textured basal leaves and demonstrates good cold resistance, staying dormant in winter and sprouting again when temperatures rise. It tolerates partial shade better than many sun-loving wildflowers.
