Plant of the Day
Wednesday 19 July 2017
This annual flowering meadow at the East Ruston Old Vicarage Garden, Norfolk, was magical. The major species providing the display were the blue flowered Centaurea cyanus (cornflower), the glowing golden flowers of Chrysanthemum segetum (corn marigold, golden cornflower, guild weed, yellow daisy, yellow ox-eye) and highlights of white blooms from Anthemis austriaca (white corn chamomile). This display requires disturbed open ground and is probably sown annually.
