Product Description

Expect masses of true blue beauty in your garden this summer with our high-quality Blue Ball cornflower blue seeds. A double-flowering variety of the blue cornflower, this charming, easy-to-please hardy annual is delightful in borders and cottage gardens.

The long-stemmed Blue Ball variety is extremely vivid and grows prolifically - perfect for attracting pollinators such as butterflies and bees. It also makes a splendid cut flower and was once widely grown commercially in East Anglia for this purpose. The blooms can also be dried if desired.

Cornflower seeds are easy to grow and will flower the same year they are sown, in as little as 10-12 weeks. Its seeds can be sown directly in the garden where it is to flower. Once a common sight in cornfields before the use of herbicides, cornflowers thrive in full sun on well-drained soils - including those which are dry, low in fertility, or chalky.

Order your cornflower blue seeds today from Mr Fothergill's. They contrast beautifully with our poppy seeds or Nigella seeds for a stunning bee-friendly garden. Browse our full selection of flower seeds to find more beautiful and easy-to-grow options.
