Attracts tons of local bees & butterflies

My vegetable garden’s pollination got way better after I planted these. Bees visit every single day spring to early summer.

Makes beautiful soft floral bouquets

The lavender-blue shade looks so gentle in cut arrangements. Stems stay firm and fresh for almost two weeks indoors.

Deer won’t touch these beautiful blooms

Neighborhood deer eat most annuals, but they ignore the leaves and flowers of this cornflower all season long.

Great border filler for garden fences

I planted a whole row along the backyard fence. It grows 2ft tall and fills empty spots around my rose bushes.

Perfect for beginner gardeners

I’m totally new to growing flowers from seed. These sprouted fast in March soil without cold stratification. Seedlings stay short and sturdy.
