Product Description

These Cornflower Seeds variety is celebrated for its intense, true sapphire-blue flowers that stand tall on slender, silvery-green stems.

'Blue Boy' is the quintessential cornflower, loved by gardeners for generations for its easy-going nature and stunning visual impact.

This seed packet includes:

  • Approx. 400 seeds.

Growing tips:

  • Sowing months: March, April, May, August, September
  • Flowering months: June, July, August
  • Sowing info: Sow cornflowers on the surface of a good quality seed compost at a temperature of 18-23ºC (65-73ºF) and cover with a very fine sprinkling of compost or vermiculite. Do not exclude light as this helps germination.
  • Sow cornflower seeds outdoors where they are to grow from March to April. Choose a position in full sun on well drained soil which has been raked to a fine tilth. Sow seeds thinly, at a depth of 3mm (1/8") in drills spaced 30cm (12") apart. Water the ground regularly, especially during dry periods. Germination usually takes 14-21days. When cornflower seedlings are large enough to handle, thin them out to 15cm (6") apart.
