Mr Fothergills Cornflower Tall Mixed 500 Seeds

Cornflower – Tall Mixed

This mixture attracts beneficial insects and birds into the garden, and is so easy to grow, producing double flowers on tall stems. This hardy annual reaches the height of 90cm.

Sow outdoors, from March to May or August to October, where they are to flower, 0.5cm deep, directly into finely-prepared, well-drained soil, which has already been watered. Seedlings usually appear in 14-28 days. Thin seedlings to 20cm apart. Water well until plants are established. For a continuous display, make sowings at two to three-week intervals. Sowings made in curves, rather than straight lines, often create a more pleasing effect. Flowers from June to September. Late summer and autumn sowings will flower the following year, often earlier than spring sowings.
