Cornflower (Centaurea cyanus)200 Seeds Per Gram

Product Code:  cecy200

From Only: £2.51 Ex VAT


Cornflower is an attractive tall annual with a much branched stem and hairy grey-green leaves. Easily its most distinctive feature is its large intensely blue flowers which in common with other members of the daisy family (Asteraceae) are in fact a compound head of many small flowers. The edge of the head consists of large clear blue flowers and the middle of small purplish ones. Flowering occurs from June to August and is followed by the seeds which are similar in size to cereal grain but crowned with a brush of short bristles.

Cornflower was formerly a widespread arable weed particularly on sandy loams but also on many other soil types including calcareous clays. Although most commonly associated with crops that were cultivated in the autumn it also grows well from seed sown in the spring.

We sell our Cornflower (Centaurea cyanus) seeds per gram; customers should be aware that when ordering more than one gram of Cornflower seeds the entire amount will be bagged together to reduce unnecessary packaging.
