basic information
Globe gilia (Gilia capitata) is a native California wildflower with dense, spherical clusters of small, lavender-blue flowers that bloom in spring and summer. In gardens, it attracts pollinators like bees and butterflies, supporting local ecosystems. Its delicate, airy appearance adds soft texture to mixed borders, rock gardens, or meadow-style plantings. Globe gilia also works well in container gardens, providing a low-maintenance option for adding color and biodiversity.

How To Grow
GROWER TIP: Globe Gilia is best sown in the masses, directly out in the garden. You can also start indoors, 6 to 8 weeks prior to the last frost to get a jump start on the season. The flowers will bloom during the summer months and will not return the following year unless seeds are collected, or they drop to the ground below.
