Growing Info:

Sow 4-6 weeks before planting out. Barely cover as light aids germination. Harden off and transplant outside after the last frost. Stake the plants in windy areas as they have delicate wiry stems. Pincushions flower heavily in early summer. Deadhead flowers, stems too, once they have finished blooming to prolong the blooming season, and then cut the plants back at the end of the growing season in autumn. It is necessary to divide the plants every 2 - 3 years to maintain vigorous growth. The Scabiosa Pincushion flower needs well-draining soil for winter survival and are resistant to drought once established.
