Centaurea cyanus
If you haven’t noticed, we have a thing for purple! And edible flowers, too.
Since 2013 we’ve been saving the seeds of a vivid spectrum of burgundy, violet and lavender blooms with the occasional dusty rose blossom in both solid and bi-color. Her silver-green stalks rise 3′ tall, perfect for cutting and easily thrive in most garden conditions including drought, low fertility and partial shade. We love toss the petals of Burgundy Beauties on salads, cakes and gazpacho all summer long.
