Centaurea montana 'Amethyst Dream'
(Perennial cornflower)
A lovely plant with feathery, rosette-shaped, rosy purple flowers sitting on top of short stems above a clump of grey-green leaves. Very like Centaurea purpurea - which could well be the same plant but with a Plant Breeders Rights applied to it!

Mounding plant
Hardy to -10 degrees and more, the leaves remain throughout the year with new ones replacing older leaves in spring. Cut back in spring to tidy up the plant. Needs a well-drained soil that does not dry out, but is not too wet. May suffer from mildew in warm summers, if so remove the leaves to promote fresh growth.
