PINCUSHION FLOWER
Scabiosa atropurpurea
Native to SW Europe, Henry J. Moore described them to be “so exquisite
as to be almost beyond description.” Lavender, pink, red, yellow and
white double flowers are borne in profusion from midsummer to frost.
Their long stems support hundreds of honeyscented florets that produce
a pincushion effect and make them wonderful long-lasting cut flowers.
Plant them in a border or meadow garden to keep the bees and butterflies
coming! Ht. 80 cm Sp. 30 cm D.S. or Tr.
