Cornflower cyanus 'Black Ball'

Variously described as dark-crimson right through to dark-chocolate. I think these are more blackish purple, although when the sun shines on them they do look burgundy. The not-over large flowers are carried on long, slender stems which makes them great for cutting and for filling gaps between perennials in the border. These are half-hardy annuals, which means they can be sown in the autumn for late spring/early summer flowering. 300 seeds. June to August
