Catananche caerulea
An upright narrow perennial with lilac-blue cornflower like flowers with a fine silvery stripe down the middle, surrounded by shining straw-like bracts from July to September. The flowers are held on wiry stems up to 60cm tall above a low clump of grey-green narrow leaves. The flowers are followed by attractive papery seedheads which are great for dried flower arrangements. Best planted in groups of 3-5 plants to get the best display of flowers.
This Cupid’s Dart likes a well-drained soil in sun.
