Purple Tansy - Phacelia tanacetifolia

            Can sometimes be known as Lacy Phacelia and Blue Tancy. These flowers are really good in attracting bees and other beneficial insects. This flowering plant is in the borage family and as well as being used in wild flower restoration can also act as a weed suppressor and nitrogen holder and also used as a soil improving green manure. Native to parts of Central America and New Zealand.
