Pincushion Flower - Fata Morgana

Scabiosa Atropurpurea

This soft and simple summer flower may at first glance seem a bit unpretentious, but in fact, it is one of our most popular cut flower varieties. It has tightly double flowers in a beautiful creamy-yellow shade that eventually leans towards apricot. Fata Morgana has sturdy and tall stems where the lovely flowers float high above the foliage. It is very decorative in borders and plantings, either on its own or interwoven with other varieties.

Pincushion Flower is perfect for cutting as it lasts a long time in a vase and is a fantastic filler plant together with other summer flower varieties. It is also very beautiful to dry and use as everlasting flowers in bouquets all year round. A great favorite of our ambassador Johanna Berglund (Snickargladjen) who grows it every summer!
