Scabiosa graminifolia or the Grass-Leaved Scabiosa is a prolifically flowering perennial, which is useful for adding colour and character to most gardens.
The growth habit is clump forming and it produces stiff flower stems upon which a solitary flower is borne.
The open faced flowers have a slightly domed, pincushion appearance and they come in a shades of purples and blues.
These plants can flower almost continuously throughout the year in the right conditions and are great for cottage and perennial gardens as well as making attractive potted specimens.
