About this seed

Why gardeners choose this variety

Yellow perennial cornflower brings the distinctive flower structure of Centaurea into a warm garden palette. Many slender florets gather into a textured flower head above leafy stems, creating a useful contrast with broad-petalled daisies and open, cup-shaped flowers.

Its perennial growth gives a sunny border a returning seasonal presence. Plant it with space for the clump to develop, using the yellow blooms beside blue, violet or silver-leaved companions. The flowers also add an unusual texture to informal cut arrangements.
