| Mountain Bluet | Centaurea montana | |  | A special selection of Mountain Bluet, forming a low mound of grey-green leaves with an early summer display of shaggy flowers. Petals are a rich deep amethyst purple. A good choice for near the front of the border, in full sun to part shade. Flowers are great for cutting. Remove faded blooms to prevent self seeding. Plants may benefit from a hard cutting back in midsummer to rejuvenate the foliage. A Blooms of Bressingham introduction. | 11C-N |  |  |  |  |  |
