Nursery contributed plant descriptions
A must have perennial with the largest flower of all scabiosa--4" across--the flowers tipping artfully at the top of the strong stems. Ruffled deep blue blooms have pincushion centers that are constantly buzzing with bees from midsummer to fall. Excellent cut, the long lasting flowers look fabulous paired with snapdragons in a vase, and the more you cut, the more they bloom. Heat and humidity tolerant too!
