Scabiosa
Prized by gardeners and pollinators for their bounty of endearing pincushion-like blooms that unfurl from spring ’til frost, our Scabiosa offerings tout a trouble-free habit with fetching finely-divided foliage that thwarts deer and enjoys fertile, somewhat limy, well-drained niches.
Discovered during a 1997 Great Plants of Nebraska expedition in the mountains of Inner Mongolia, this easily grown cultivar promises spectacular flowers plus untold vigor. The refined textural mound of elliptic to oblong-shaped deep green basal leaves unleashes exceptional purple-blue pincushions alighting firm 18 in. stems. Adored by butterflies but not deer, ‘Mongolian Mist’s elegant profile can grace well-drained borders, pollinator gardens, rockeries and bouquets.
