Care and watering
Cephalaria gigantea (giant scabious) thrives in moist, well-drained soil and full sun. Water regularly in dry spells, keeping the soil evenly moist but not waterlogged. Mulch to conserve moisture and protect roots.
Maintenance
Deadhead faded flowers to extend bloom and cut back after flowering. Divide clumps every 3–4 years to maintain vigor. Support tall stems in windy spots.
Location
Plant in a sunny, sheltered spot with rich soil and good air circulation. Avoid damp, cold corners; give it space to reach its full height.
Tips
Stake early, remove spent blooms for tidiness, and pair with grasses or perennials. In frost-free regions, apply a light mulch in winter.
