Polka Dot Mix Bachelor Buttons

'Polka Dot Mix' are cool weather annuals offering late spring through summer interest. Often grown in cutting gardens, the plants bloom abundantly, have a long bloom period, and produce charming daisylike double flowers in a mix of blue, purple, pink, red, and white. Borne singly on tall, willowy stems, the long-lasting, nectar-rich flowers attract honeybees and butterflies and add lovely bits of color to floral arrangements, cut or dried. The flowers are edible and can be used as garnish.

The plants in 'Polka Dot Mix', also known as bachelor's buttons and cornflowers, have a compact, upright, clumping habit of lance-shaped, gray-green leaves. Days to Maturity: 45 to 50
