A beloved cottage garden classic, Agrostemma ‘Ocean Pearls’ is easy to grow, graceful in the breeze, and wonderfully useful as a cut flower. Also known as white corn cockle, this charming annual produces pure white, 2" blossoms on slender upright stems, creating a soft, airy look that feels right at home in cottage gardens, cutting gardens, meadow-style plantings, and sunny flower borders.

Growing about 36" tall and 18" wide, ‘Ocean Pearls’ Corn Cockle brings elegant vertical movement without looking stiff or formal. One happy plant can produce a hundred or more blooms, swaying lightly above the garden and pairing beautifully with bachelor buttons, larkspur, cosmos, poppies, sweet peas, ornamental grasses, and other old-fashioned annual flowers. The clean white blooms are especially lovely in fresh bouquets, where they add brightness, simplicity, and a touch of wildflower romance.

Plant Agrostemma ‘Ocean Pearls’ in full sun with well-drained soil. It may self-sow where happy, often returning with even more flowers the following spring. Explore more easy cottage garden favorites in our Agrostemma - Corn Cockle collection.
