Cornflower is a hardy, Annual flower , that n ot only blooms in the famous cornflower blue, these blossoms are also found in shades of red, wine, white and pink flowers on grey-green foliage.

Dried petals are a colourful addition to potpourri.

It is used in herb teas and is an ingredient in the Twinings "Lady Grey" tea.

This is a useful flower for attracting bees and butterflies and as a long lasting cut flower.

This is a good background plant that prefers a sunny position with protection from the wind.

These bright blossoms once grew wild in the fields of the United Kingdom and southern Europe, though they have become very rare in recent times because of the changing landscape and new farming techniques. This species was first recorded for botanical records in 1753 by Carl Linnaeus.

While the genus name “Centaurea” comes from Greek mythology, the common name of Bachelor’s Button comes from the tradition of young men wearing the flower as a sign of love. They were also called cornflowers because of their abundant growth in farmers’ fields.

At one time the blue blossoms were made into a temporary dye most often used for tinting frosting, sugar, or candies.
