£4.50
This species of cornflower, or common knapweed, is low in stature and well suited to growing in a rock gardenplants, dry bank or for edging. Foliage forms a mounding mat of grey-green divided leaves, setting off a display of lilac-pink flowers beginning in early summer and continuing for many weeks. Removing faded flower heads will encourage repeat blooming all summer long. Cut back to the ground in autumn.
