Blue Dragon (Dracocephalum moldavica) Also known as Moldavian Dragon’s Head or Moldavian Balm, this annual plant was first botanically described by Linnaeus in 1753. It has been grown for centuries throughout Europe and is cherished for its fragrant, lemon-like balm. The leaves and flowers can be dried to make a soothing tea traditionally used to support digestion and promote calmness. Plants are sturdy, reaching 16–20 inches tall, and are covered in striking bright blue flowers that attract a wide range of pollinators. Best flowering occurs in full sun to partial shade.

Growing Instructions: Sow seeds directly into the soil at their final location. They can also be started indoors in pots or as plugs, as the plants prefer minimal root disturbance. Sow 4–6 weeks before the last frost date. Surface sow and place under full light. Keep soil evenly moist using a spray bottle. Germination typically occurs within 5–10 days.
