Beautiful wild perennial for a semi-shade location in a natural garden. The striking, distinctive blue flowers make an eye-catching garden feature. Year on year this plant will become more luxuriantly beautiful as its rhizomes spread out, forming
small colonies. Cutting back hard after flowering will encourage a second flush of blooms. The flowers last well as cut flowers - cut them in the morning, while still closed, and you'll be able to enjoy them for a very long time.

The flowers of Mountain Cornflower act as a magnet for many insects, including bees, bumblebees and butterflies. The seedheads are also a valuable food source for birds in the autumn.

Centaurea montana seeds. Contents: approximately 10 Mountain Cornflower seeds.
