DWARF BLUE BACHELOR BUTTONS, ALSO KNOWN AS CORNFLOWERS, ARE ANOTHER OLD-TIMEY ANNUAL THAT HAS GRACED FLOWERBEDS FOR MANY YEARS. THIS SHADE OF BLUE HAS ALWAYS BEEN THE MOST POPULAR. CORNFLOWERS ARE VERY EASY TO GROW FROM SEED. THE PUFFY, ROUNDED BLOOMS ARE HELD HIGH AT THE TOP OF THE STEMS. THE DUSTY BLUE-ISH GREEN FOLIAGE GROWS STRAIGHT UP AND SPREADS VERY LITTLE, SO PLANT BACHELOR BUTTONS CLOSE TOGETHER FOR A MASS OF COLOR.

BACHELOR BUTTONS GROW WELL IN A VARIETY OF WELL-DRAINED SOIL TYPES, AND PREFER FULL SUN TO PARTIAL SHADE. THEY ARE VERY DROUGHT TOLERANT AFTER ESTABLISHED, AND LIKE TO BE CROWDED. PLANT BACHELOR BUTTON SEEDS IN A LOCATION WITH FULL SUN TO PARTIAL SHADE. CORNFLOWERS GROW WELL IN A VARIETY OF WELL DRAINED SOIL TYPES, BUT ADD ORGANIC MATTER TO HEAVY CLAY SOILS.
