Scabiosa (Scabiosa Atropurpurea Double Rose) - Gardeners everywhere appreciate the attributes of Scabiosa. Also known as Pincushion Flower, these attractive drought tolerant annuals establish nicely from Scabiosa seed. Rose Pincushion Flower is a delight to grow offering both lovely, showy blooms along with a long flowering season. Scabiosa Pincushion is a treasured favorite among xeriscape gardeners and butterflies and other beneficial insects adore it as well. In addition to being attractive in the garden, the Scabiosa Pincushion Flower is also excellent for cutting, drying or pressing.
Sow Scabiosa seeds indoors 10 weeks before the desired planting date. Sow the seeds and press the rose Pincushion Flower seeds gently into the starter mix. Keep the seed moist until germination. Scabiosa flower seeds can also be sown directly outdoors after danger of frost has passed, but they will be very late to bloom. Sow the Pincushion seeds into well-draining soil that has been loosened and weeded. Sow the flower seeds in groups of 3 - 4 spaced 12 - 18 inches apart. Gently press the seed into the soil and keep it moist.
