This lovely wildflower is a magnet for bees and butterflies and other pollinators. It was ranked very highly, in terms of nectar production (showing particular value in the role of nectar-provider for insects), in a UK survey of meadow species' production of nectar sugar and pollen. Possibly not strictly native, but certainly naturalised and known to have been known in the UK since at least the 12th century.
Long blooming period, through most of the summer. The tall flower stems can be used for cut flowers, which last well in the vase.
