Centaurea cyanus varieties deliver reliable performance with minimal cultivation demands. These tall-stemmed cultivars produce abundant double blooms ideal for herbaceous borders and floral arrangements. The extended flowering windows—spring through early summer and late summer into autumn—ensure prolonged colour in the garden. Standing at 90cm, plants provide substantial vertical interest while serving as valuable nectar sources for pollinators. Each packet contains 500 seeds, offering excellent value for establishing drifts or successive plantings. Direct sow in prepared ground during recommended periods for optimal germination and establishment.
