Knapweed

Knapweed is a member of the same family as cornflowers. You can see it in the shapes of the petals and the ovary.

I only encountered it two summers ago.

I am linking this post with Today's Flowers.

Drop by and see what else is blooming!

Another lovely flower from the college gardens.

 I love the colour of these flowers,

especially on a grey morning like this one.
