Decorative Wheat ‘Utrecht Blue’

Decorative Wheat ‘Utrecht Blue’

CA$5.95

Triticum dicoccum var. atratum

Stunning heirloom wheat sourced from the Utrecht region of the Netherlands showcases incredible beauty. While the wheat berries are edible, they can be challenging to thresh, leading many to cultivate it primarily for ornamental purposes. The tall, sturdy stems rise to bear striking steel-blue grain heads adorned with lengthy black awns. This wheat is a captivating sight as it sways gracefully in the breeze or when gathered and dried for use in floral designs or to add interest to the garden.
