Agrostemma (Corn Cockle) | Blush Pink

This beautiful flower starts off a soft pink, fading to blush and then finally almost white as it's life comes to an end. Delicate and whimsical this is a great addition to gardens, bouquets and excellent for wedding work.

This year a few purples popped up on the same plant as the blush. I removed them as soon as I saw them but please note a few purple flowers could pop up. I'm guessing a few plants were reverting back to original genetics.
