Centaurea Montana Amethyst In Snow

Centaurea montana ‘Amethyst in Snow’ is the first bicolour of its species! This showy variety of Perennial Cornflower boasts mauve-purple flower heads, surrounded by a ring of dazzling white petals. The grey green foliage has a low spreading habit that forms a wide mound. This eye-catching variety is perfect for adding some ‘wow’ factor to the front of herbaceous borders. Ideal for cottage gardens and wildlife areas where it will attract pollinating insects. Height: 45cm (18″). Spread: 60cm (24″). Grow Centaurea in borders in full sun. Perennial Cornflowers are drought tolerant once established and will happily tolerate almost any soil, except those that are excessively waterlogged.
