Cornflower (Centaurea Cyanus Magic Mix) - The feathery flowers of this varietiy make a nice addition to mixed cut flower bouquets. Bachelor's button is a first-class cut flower for attaching to your lapel! Bring a traditional touch to cut flowers with this old fashioned favorite! Annual Bachelor's buttons, are a great direct sow product for xeriscape landscaping where water conservation is desired.
The mature plants prefer full sun in mild climates and partial shade in the hottest regions. They tolerate a wide variety of soils as long as it drains well. Cornflowers perform the best in mild climates with moderate water, but they do tolerate drought. Centaurea Cyanus plants are very attractive to both bees and butterflies, but deer leave them alone. Bachelor's Button flowers also make an excellent cut flower for both fresh and dried arrangements.
Directly sow Bachelor's Button seeds outdoors in early spring as soon as soil can be worked. Prepare seedbed by loosening soil and weeding. Sow the flower seeds in rows, 6 seeds per foot. You will want to thin seedlings to 6 - 8 inches apart for best results. In mild winter climates, Cornflower seeds can be sown in the fall for very early blooms the following spring. Like many flowers in your garden, this wildflower can self-sow.
