Cornflower Red Ball - Seeds
Centaurea cyanus 'Red ball'
Popular annual, easy-to-grow flowers. Blooms are 3-4 cm in diameter. Grown in flower gardens, pots, sown in lawns. Flowers are cut for bouquets. Particularly suitable for flower gardens to create the impression of a natural meadow or to fill small spaces between perennials. These flowers will bloom longer if sufficient moisture is ensured, so if the soil is dry, watering is recommended. Cornflowers do not need special soil, can grow even in flower gardens with poor soil lacking fertiliser. Plants contain a lot of nectar and attract insects and butterflies to the garden.
