  • Species and varieties: Centaurea cyanus, commonly known as cornflower or bachelor's button, is a species of flowering plant in the family Asteraceae. The pink variety is a less common but beautiful variant of the typically blue cornflower.
  • Hybrid or heirloom: Centaurea cyanus can be found in both hybrid and heirloom varieties. The pink cornflower is often an heirloom variety, cherished for its unique color and historical significance.
  • Pruning and training: Deadheading spent flowers will encourage continuous blooming. Cornflowers do not require extensive pruning, but removing dead or damaged stems can help maintain plant health.
  • Fertilization needs: Cornflowers are relatively low-maintenance and do not require heavy fertilization. A light application of a balanced, all-purpose fertilizer in the spring can promote healthy growth. Over-fertilization should be avoided as it can lead to excessive foliage growth at the expense of flowers.
  • Hardiness zones: Centaurea cyanus is suitable for USDA hardiness zones 2 through 11.
  • Climate requirements: Cornflowers thrive in full sun and prefer well-drained soil. They are drought-tolerant once established and can grow in a variety of soil types, including sandy and loamy soils.
