Corn cockle is a tall beautiful annual, almost lost from the wild due to arable farming techniques. The flowers are a vivid pink which look amazing when planted with Corn flowers and Corn marigolds. It prefers full sun on well drained soil. Let it self seed each year, then dig over the soil in the autumn – use this method for all the cornfield annuals to keep them going year after year.
