Attract bees, butterflies and other pollinators to your garden with this stunning lacy flower, adored by bees. Phacelia is a beautiful annual with fern like grey- green leaves and abundant soft blue or lavender-blue flowers in summer. The curved, lacy flowers produce a lot of nectar and pollen which make them extremely attractive to bees and other pollinators.

Planting phacelia supports the All-Ireland Pollinator Plan, and it is also recommended by the Royal Horticultural Society (RHS) as a good plant for pollinators.

To prepare soil for planting

First clear the site of weeds, stones and sticks. Turn the soil and break up any clods, then rake so that you have a fine crumbly surface. If your ground is heavy, or you do not want to or can’t turn the soil, then clear of weeds and add a 2-3 layer of sand, soil or compost, or a mix of these, to the surface. Rake over. Do not add fertilizer when planting borage or other wildflowers.
