All the easy-going, free-flowering character of the classic cornflower, but in a colour that pairs beautifully with whites, mauves, and blues for a dreamy, meadow-inspired planting.

Sow in autumn for spring flowering, or in early spring for summer blooms. Sow seeds 1 cm deep in a sunny, well-drained position and thin to 30 cm apart. Cornflowers thrive in average to poor soils and need little feeding. Deadhead regularly to extend flowering. Performs beautifully throughout NZ in any sunny, open position.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat's in the Packet\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eEach packet contains \u003cstrong\u003e15 seeds\u003c\/strong\u003e of Pink Cornflower (\u003cem\u003eCentaurea cyanus\u003c\/em\u003e).\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Chbotanics Seeds","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45029127356485,"sku":null,"price":4.5,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0734\/2974\/5733\/files\/image_1d1dae5d-b854-4216-ab46-38f7b0dcdc40.png?v=1780727725","url":"https:\/\/chbotanics.co.nz\/products\/pink-cornflower-seeds","provider":"Chbotanics Seeds","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
