Cornflower

Centaurea cyanus L.

Another inhabitant of the field meadow is the cornflower, a flower that has many different folk names, such as macchia, samosa or modrak. Although it is a common weed in Poland, its modish crown of tiny flowers adorns the meadow like blue jewels glittering in the sun. The cornflower, which blooms from May to September, is pollinated by butterflies, among others, and its fruits are dispersed by the wind and ants. Sometimes its seeds can go astray among fields and fallow land, and then, spreading along with the crops, cornflowers pierce the golden ears of wheat or rye with their flower baskets, or shine intensely among the wasteland like blue stars.
