Cornflower 'Black Ball'
A stunning addition to the flower garden providing contrast and colour, sown from autumn to spring, this annual cornflower will fill your garden with flowers and attract both bees and beneficial insects.
How to grow
A hardy, easy to germinate flowering annual, sow seed from mid- autumn to early spring. Choose a position in full sun and direct sow. Cover with approx. 5mm of good garden soil or compost and water well. Seed should germinate within 7-14 days. Although drought hardy once established, regularly watering is required during germination and extended periods of dry. Thin seedlings as needed if planting becomes overcrowded.
