Brief Guide: Tall, Annual Wildflower
Flowering Times: June - September

Additional Information:
Cornflower was traditionally found in arable fields where it established from the disturbed soils of spring seedbed preparations for cereal crops. Far less common today due to modern farming methods and improved seed crop cleaning. The most reliable establishment  is obtained from spring to early summer sowings into a warm soil. Like most annual wildflowers sunlight is important for germination so Cornflower seeds should be surface or very shallow sown..
