One of the most nostalgic of wildflowers, cornflowers immediately evoke summer meadows from days gone by and romantic cottage gardens. 'Blue Boy' is a tall variety, featuring masses of double, bright blue flowers held on slender stems. It's perfect for mini-meadow schemes grown with poppies and ox-eye daisies, running through borders alongside calendula or sown into the cutting garden. With deadheading, it will produce flowers in abundance for many weeks.

Height: 1.2m (47"). Spread: 30cm (12”).
