@scottrasmussen, I think you are right about the chicory. 2 reasons for my doubt,: - cornflower is rather commen here, chicory is not - chicory has rather rough leafs, cornflower thin and fine (as in my spotting). Nevertheless, color and most of all petal form make me think you're right.

@scottrasmussen: thanks for mentioning. I'll check it once again

Based on your photos this might be Chicory rather than cornflower. http://www.eol.org/pages/467862
