Scabiosa Butterfly Blue (Pincushion) | Two Live Perennial Plants | Non-GMO, Low Growth, Great for Edging, Blooms Spring to Fall

Scabiosa (also called Pincushion) is a compact, perennial (Zones 3 to 8) that grows to about 15” tall. This variety, Butterfly Blue, has nearly 2” flowers with a frilly, flat lavender petals surround a paler lavender center and the stamens look like pins which is how it got its “pincushion” name. Foliage is fern-like and a lovely blue-gray-green that makes a nice backdrop for lighter colored plants and flowers. Loved by pollinators, this easy to grow plant tolerates full sun to partial shade. Its low-growing habit makes it perfect for edging, rock gardens, and front-of-garden placements.

Scabiosa does not like wet roots so it must be planted somewhere with good drainage and will tolerate drier soils. Flowers grow on graceful stems and hold up well in cut arrangements and this little darling is often seen in wedding bouquets. Plant blooms from spring until frost and the more you cut it, the more it will blossom. Plant is also deer resistant.
