Flor silvestre azul clásica — Centaurea cyanus
The cornflower (Centaurea cyanus) is perhaps the most recognisable wildflower in Europe. Its vivid blue blooms appear from June to August, providing rich nectar for bumblebees and honeybees.
Once common in Irish cornfields, the cornflower has become rare in the wild — growing your own is a direct act of conservation. An annual species that's easy to grow from seed, it self-sows reliably once established.
Perfect for cutting gardens, wildflower borders, or adding colour to meadow mixes.
