Tall Mix Centaurea cyanus grows 36-40" upright stems with 1-2" blooms in blue, purple, pink, red and white. Sow 1/8" deep, thin to 4-8" apart, and expect sprouts in 7-14 days with flowers in 65-75 days.
Direct sow mid-spring to early summer in full sun and average well-drained soil, or start indoors 4-6 weeks before last frost. Cut for bouquets, leave for bees and birds, or use petals as an edible garnish.
