Unit price perCentaurea cyanus
Double White Ball is an elegant Cornflower producing pure white, fully double blooms on tall, graceful stems. A beautiful contrast to the traditional blue Cornflower, its soft white flowers work particularly well in cottage gardens, mixed borders and cutting gardens.
The long stems and abundant blooms make this an excellent variety for fresh cut flower arrangements. Left in the garden, the flowers attract bees and a range of beneficial insects. Hardy, drought tolerant once established and easy to grow, Cornflowers thrive in full sun and well-drained soil.
