These easy to grow flower seeds are great for beginning gardeners or children's gardens. The Centaurea Cyanus flower seeds are larger making them easy to handle, and they germinate readily to create this fun Cornflower Polka Dot mix of colors.

Cornflowers, or also commonly called Bachelor's Buttons, are wonderful cut flowers as well. The blooms dry nicely for dried everlasting arrangements.

Start sowing indoors in August - September
Sow in pots or trays of moist seed compost and cover with a very fine sprinkling of compost. After sowing, do not exclude light as this helps germination. Keep the surface of the compost moist.
