Growing Info: Sow outdoors March-May for flowers June-Sep. Alternatively, sow under glass Aug-Oct, and overwinter for stronger plants and earlier flowers the following year. Sow in pre-watered seed compost, and cover with a light sprinkling of soil. When seedlings are large enough to handle, transplant into individual pots. Plant 15cm apart. |

Aftercare: Cornflowers do not need to be fertilised and like to be planted close together. Stems may need support in exposed sites. Deadhead regularly to encourage more flowers. |
