Description:
Centaurea cyanus, commonly known as cornflower, is an annual plant with snowy white, frilly blooms that emit a light honey fragrance. Native to Europe, it is now naturalized in North America and parts of Australia. The plant is deer resistant and attracts pollinators with its large blooms, which can reach up to 2.5 inches in diameter. It thrives in full sun and well-drained soil, and its flowers are edible and used in herbal medicine.
