Centaury, Feverworth

Common Centaury -centaurium erythraea– is a very pretty and under-used wildflower. It is closely related to the gentians, making it perfect for including in rock gardens. In the wild, it grows in different types of dry grassland and can be found in open woods, heathland and sometimes on bare open ground. Common Centaury is a low growing species with rich pink flowers, each with a soft yellow centre. Flowers appear from June to September and play host to a wide range of insect life such as bees, and beetles. Common Centaury looks best alongside other low growing wild flowers such as Wild Pansy, Meadow Saxifrage and Sheep’s bit scabious. Alternative Names for Common Centaury include , Feverwort , Bitter herb, Century, Lesser centaury, and Bitterwort
