Scabiosa, Pincushion
Scabiosa has been around for a long time. If you love the Victorian styled gardens, and colors, then you can’t pass Scabiosa up. In fact, you should get every color. Scabiosa is a cut and come again cut flowers. You need to commit to cutting them, or they’ll go to seed. So, don’t over plant. I always imagined the women dressed in their fancy clothing of the Victorian Period walking along and holding their hands out brushing the scabiosa as they gossiped of the most juicy stories!
