Bachelor’s button, also known as “cornflower”, is drought tolerant and needs little pampering. Flowers are great for cutting or drying and the edible petals are beautiful sprinkled on a salad. Bachelor’s button will “naturalize”; it self-sows for another crop of flowers the following season, and birds love the seed heads! Attracts pollinators and beneficial insects. Deer resistant.
When to sow outside: RECOMMENDED.
1 to 2 weeks before your average last frost date, or in late summer/fall for blooms the following season.
Mild Climates: Sow in fall for winter bloom.
When to start inside: 4 to 6 weeks before your average last frost date. Not recommended; does not transplant well. Use biodegradable pots to avoid root disturbance.
Special germination instructions: For optimum germination, chill seed in the refrigerator for 5 days before sowing.
