Purple Scabiosa
Picture - pincushion flower
|
This
purple Scabiosa picture came from our garden. We
purchased four of these plants this past spring,
Three of
them were the Scabiosa butterfly blue and one was Scabiosa
pink mist. Believe it or not the one in the picture
above is the pink mist. Next year we'll try to get a
picture of the butterfly blue. These plants bloomed
from the time we put them in the ground in the
spring until sometime in late November or early
December. The best way we found to keep this
plant blooming was to remove the spent blooms. Also,
make sure they get watered weekly during the hot
months.
