Ensure your soil is nutrient rich with fertilizer a fortnight before planting. Likes a well-drained soil type. Well suited to full sun but doesn't mind afternoon shading. Sow directly into your patch when daytime temperatures regularly surpass 18-20 degrees. If still too cold, propagate in seed trays and transplant when conditions have improved. Cornflowers will attract an array of pollinators through their vivid, bright flowers.

When to plant (see zone map to find your zone):

Zone 1: October - December
Zone 2: August - December
Zone 3: August - January
Zone 4: April - July
