These blooms are magnets for butterflies and bees, their spiky purple flowers rising above fine foliage in a way that catches the eye without demanding much fuss. The plant tolerates some drought once established and handles the heat of late summer without wilting, flowering reliably from June through November. Deer leave them alone, which alone makes them valuable in any garden where wildlife pressure is a concern.
Focal Scoop Purple Lace Scabiosa is grown as a cut flower and garden ornamental, valued for its ability to fill vases with texture and height. The airy blooms work beautifully in mixed bouquets and add movement to borders and cottage gardens.
