Wow, these cornflowers look very round and robust. While the cornflowers in bloom in my garden are attractive, their heads are barely an inch in diameter. What kind of soil do you use?

These were growing in a pot in downtown Seward, so I can't take credit for their robust behavior. I'm sure the planter is filled with some sort of potting soil.
