Scabiosa caucasica, forms a clump and produces delicate blue or pink flowers are borne on stiff stems that rise above the green foliage.
It is used in either garden beds or pots for accent colour and a delicate texture.
It grows best in full sun and can survive lengthy periods of drought.
TIPS: Removing dead flowers will promote new growth. If the flower stems tend to become leggy and flop (often a problem if the soil is too rich), then plant them closer together or next to a tall Sedum or a Persicaria to give them support.
NOTE BENE: Be cautious with heavy soils that retain moisture in winter, as this could cause root rot, leading to the plant’s death.
