Centaurea cyanus 'Blue Boy' has double blooms in a stunning shade of deep blue. It makes a great cut flower and a lovely addition to the border or the wildflower garden. The true blue color goes with everything - just like the sky.
Also known as Centaurea cyanus 'Tall Blue Boy'. I like tall varieties better than dwarf ones because they look more graceful, and they make a bigger impression. Deer resistant .
Sowing Centaurea cyanus 'Blue Boy' Seeds
Sow centaurea seeds outdoors in early spring, 1/4" deep. Or start indoors 4-6 weeks before the last frost date. Full sun to part shade.
