Centaurea cyanus 'Blue Boy' (Cornflower, Bachelor's Buttons)
300 seeds $3.00
Centaurea '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 graceful and make a big impression.
height 30" spacing 8"
