Scabiosa Snowmaiden - Pincushion Flower

Attract butterflies to your garden in droves with this mouth-watering scabious. Scabiosa atropurpurea ‘Snowmaiden’ bears pristine white pincushion blooms with softly frilled petals from late spring until autumn. Fresh and versatile, plant this perennial in cottage garden and contemporary white border arrangements or style fashionably in vases as cut flowers.

Scabiosa plants prefer moist, but well-drained soil, a very sunny position and some shelter from harsh winds. Water during dry weather, remove spent flowers regularly, and lightly trim plants after flowering to maintain a tidy habit. Pair with lavender and verbena for an airy, fresh planting scheme, and if blooms are left to mature, the seed heads provide lasting late-season interest. Easy to grow, 'Snowmaiden' is a refined and elegant variety that brightens borders with months of graceful flowering.

Supplied in approx. 1 litre containers.
