Scabious Imperial Mix

The full scabious palette in a single packet. Imperial Mix produces honey-scented pincushion flowers in jewel tones of blackcurrant, crimson, and lavender — swaying on tall, wiry stems with a lightness that makes them look as though they are floating above the border.

A cut-and-come-again variety that flowers non-stop from July through to October, providing a continuous supply of stems for the vase and a buzzing haven for pollinators throughout the season.

• Scabiosa atropurpurea — Hardy Annual (H4)
• Height: 90cm | Flowers: July–October

One of the most generous and long-flowering annuals in the range — and one of the most loved by bees.
