Pincushion Flower - Snowmaiden

Scabiosa atropurpurea

Snowmaiden is a spectacular beauty beyond the ordinary. With its delicate white color, the flowers resemble fluffy snowflakes with a beautiful and ethereal expression. Incredibly lovely in both flower beds, pots, and bouquets. Thanks to its long vase life, Snowmaiden is now one of Florea’s absolute favorites when it comes to filler flowers in bouquets. A big advantage is that this variety can also be dried and used year-round.

An easy-to-grow summer flower loved by all our pollinators, perhaps most of all by butterflies, which often land on Snowmaiden’s fluffy flower balls.
