Product Description
Centaurea cyanus
Cut & Sifted
Cornflower is a member of the daisy family noted for its vibrant azure blue flowers. The plant is called cornflower because it naturally occurs near field crops, namely corn. The plant is also known as Bachelor's Button and Boutonniere Flower because young men once wore the flower in the label of their jacket to draw attention to their eligibility status.
Today, cornflower petals are added to tea blends, potpourri, baked goods, soups, salads and custards, or are frozen in decorative ice cubes for iced beverages.
Cornflower Tea brings a touch of elegance to any cup with its striking blue petals and light, floral taste. While delicate in flavor, it adds visual beauty and subtle sweetness to herbal blends, making it a favorite for both sipping and presentation. Traditionally, cornflower has been valued for its gentle soothing properties and is thought to support digestion and relaxation. The petals contain natural antioxidants that contribute to overall wellness, while their calming qualities make the tea a pleasant choice for winding down. Whether enjoyed on its own or paired with other herbs, cornflower lends charm, color, and a mild refreshing note.
