Scabious Butterfly Blue is a charming perennial, treasured for its masses of soft lavender-blue, pincushion-like flowers carried on slender stems. Blooming reliably from spring through autumn, it is a long-flowering favourite that brings colour, grace and movement to mixed borders, rock gardens and containers.
This variety forms a neat, compact mound of grey-green foliage, reaching about 30–40 cm high, with flower stems rising above the leaves. The blooms are highly attractive to bees, butterflies and other pollinators, making it a wonderful choice for wildlife-friendly gardens. Deadheading spent flowers encourages continual blooming over many months.
Scabious Butterfly Blue is hardy, drought tolerant once established, and thrives in full sun with well-drained soil. It copes well with South African summers, provided it is watered regularly in very hot, dry periods.
Perfect as a front-border plant, edging, or for cutting, this easy-to-grow perennial delivers effortless beauty and a delicate cottage garden charm year after year.
