    • Knautia macedonica 'Melton Pastels' Macedonian Scabious, also called pincushion flower, is a charming perennial with soft pastel blooms that glow from midsummer to autumn. Each sturdy stem bears a cluster of papery petals in a delicate mix of pink, peach, and cream, creating a airy display. This reliable bloomer thrives in sun and well-drained soil and attracts butterflies, adding a gentle, timeless charm to any garden bed.

    Care & Watering

    Water moderately, allow topsoil to dry slightly between drinks. In hot summers mulch to retain moisture. Provide full sun and well-drained soil (sandy or loamy).
