How to Care for the Plant

Water
For best results grow Centaurea montana in a sunny border in moist soil, and remove faded summer flowers to encourage a second flush in autumn.
Pruning
Remove stems and leaves when they die back to encourage more flowers and leaves. May suffer from mildew in warm summers, if so remove the leaves to promote fresh growth.
Soil
Dry and nutrient-rich soils
