Centaurea Caramia

Caramia has showy pink flowers all summer that are favourites with bumblebees. The flower buds are very attractive as well. The stems are stiffly upright and get to about 2ft 6in / 75cm tall.  This is a very worthy new addition to the flower border.

It looks like a hybrid of Centaurea jacea and  phrygia from the flowers. You may find this plant under the name C. Carina.
