How to grow
Dwarf bachelor button cornflowers are a beautiful addition to any garden. Here are some tips on how to grow them successfully: Start by choosing a sunny spot in your garden. Dwarf bachelor button cornflowers require at least 6 hours of direct sunlight each day. Prepare the soil by adding organic matter, such as compost or well-rotted manure. This will help improve soil fertility and drainage. Sow the seeds directly into the soil in early spring, once the soil has warmed up. Make sure to plant them at a depth of 1/8 inch and space them about 6 inches apart. Keep the soil moist but not waterlogged. Water the plants deeply once a week, or more often during hot, dry weather. Fertilize the plants once a month with a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer. This will help promote healthy growth and abundant blooms. Deadhead the flowers regularly to encourage more blooms. This will also help prevent the plants from becoming leggy and unattractive.
