Centaurea Nigra // Black Knapweed
Super adaptable to most gardens, black knapweed is one of the most attractive wildflowers to our native fauna. A plethora of insects and birds favour the purple flower’s nectar and then seed. A must have herbaceous perennial if you are wanting to encourage wildlife into your space. Looks lovely swaying in a meadow with tall grasses!
Harriet's Tip: Plant in an area of the garden that is neglected/ not used so much by people and pets- this plant will grow to about 60cm tall and self seeds easily so it will cover an unloved patch of ground in no time!
