Scabiosa columbaria ‘Mariposa Violet’
Large blue pincushions produced in great numbers above mounds of attractive foliage.
Fully double, large, lavender blue blossoms on sturdy stems rise above tidy bluish-green foliage. With a compact, tidy habit, this is a long and profuse bloomer. The Phoenicians were mightily impressed with this cultivar in our trials.
