A long flowering perennial with masses of soft cream pincushion flowers from June to September. These plants grow elegant flowers on strong stems, making this an excellent border plant, cut flower and dried flower. Plants grow to a height of about 75cm and attract lots of butterflies and bees into the garden. Good for use in borders, wilder gardens and gravel gardens, and plants are drought tolerant once established.
Scabious grows well in full soil and well drained neutral to alkaline soils. The plants generally die back in the winter, after flowering, and start growing again in spring.
Pack of 50 seeds. Sow seeds in spring or autumn. Sow by March for first year flowers. Sowing instructions and a colour photo are printed on the packet.
