Common Flax

Linum usitatissimum

Beloved Common Flax, an amazing summer flower with many incredible qualities. In addition to the fact that the plant fibers of this variety are used in linen production, Flax is also a wonderful bouquet flower. With its long stems and sky-blue flowers, it’s hard not to instantly fall for this floral beauty. This variety is just as lovely when freshly harvested as it is when dried in bouquets and other types of floral arrangements. Did you know that the seeds can also be used in baking? Fantastic to use as a bread spice for example!

This is also one of Anna Kubel’s favorite flowers. Partly because of how easy it is to grow but above all, for how incredibly beautiful it is in the flowerbed and summer bouquets!
