Corncockle (<i>Agrostemma githago</i>), a summer-flowering Mediterranean annual of the carnation family. Its long, wiry stems can grow to around 1m tall and the flowers are around 2cm wide. Cultivars occur in a range of mauve to red shades. While capable of self-sowing very freely and sometimes considered a minor weed, it is also quite widely cultivated for its airy, graceful habit. agrostemma-2269htm'>Agrostemma.
