Butterfly blue Pincushion Flower (Scabiosa columbaria Butterfly Blue) provides you with flushes of gorgeous lavender hued blooms that will dance in the breeze. A favorite cut flower of mine for that whimsical bounce in a flower arrangement. Pollinators will enjoy them as well while but adding color to your mixed borders and flower beds all season. The flower stems rise from low-growing rosettes of foliage, and if they seem to have paused flowering, simply cutting out old flower stems will encourage a new flush of blooms.
