Cornflower is mostly planted in flower beds for decoration, and sometimes can also be planted in flower pots. Cornflower is a kind of herb. The stem of cornflower is upright and the base is lignified. Cornflower has rich colors, but most of them are red and purple, with a certain aroma. There are many cultivated varieties of cornflower, including single and double petals, and some are annual.

In German folk, such a legend is widely spread. It is mainly about a great ancient hero alminus. During an expedition, he unfortunately contracted a disease in his eyes. One night, Ares, the God of war, suddenly entered alminus's dream and told him that in the morning, a small blue flower blooming on the roadside could cure his eyes. So the next morning, alminus came to the roadside and found the little blue flower, so he picked it and took it back, smashed it and applied it to his eyes. It wasn't long before alminus's eyes recovered and returned in triumph. So he called cornflower the "protector" of the eyes and spread it widely. After listening to this legend, do you think cornflower is very beautiful?
