Flax or linseed is an annual plant. While it is rarely found growing in the wild, it is quite easy to purchase a cultivated plant or grow one yourself. The mature plant is 90 to 120 cm high. A loose cluster of blue-purple, stalked flowers grows at the tips of the branching stems. Each 2 to 2.5 cm wide flower has 5 ovate petals surrounded by 5 erect, blue-colored stamens with a green ovary. The 5 sepals are lance-shaped. Flax has simple, alternate, upright green leaves that are 1.25 to 3.75 cm long and very narrow. They are stalkless and have smooth edges. The stems are mostly unbranched and erect and have several round, smooth stems growing from the base. The fruit of flax is a round, dry, 5-lobed capsule 0.75 to 1.25 cm in diameter.
