This particular cultivar, found by Primrose Path Nursery, is a descendant of 'Raydon's Favorite'. It yields numerous sky blue flowers, approximately 1 inch in diameter, on short and compact plants.

This species blooms 2 weeks earlier than the original variety and is highly attractive to bees. Its adaptability allows it to flourish in various conditions, such as sandy and clay soils, dry climates, and high pH levels in alkaline soil. Additionally, it serves as a habitat for the Silvery Checkerspot butterfly.
