Cornflower - Black Button

Cornflowers are an absolute powerhouse flower in our Crawford Road gardens. They are an edible flower that is also easy to dry and press. Their petals are perfect fresh in salads, but also stunning when dried and sprinkled over platters. 
They flower prolifically and add to garden borders creating the English Country Garden look that is so stunning. The black button might be our favourite with its rich almost black colour. 

Approx 50 seeds per packet
