White Pincushion Flower is an herbaceous perennial that blooms all summer, possibly to first frost. Borne singly, the huge 3- to 4-inch flowers rise above the grayish green foliage on strong, stiff stems. Prettily frilled and ruffled, the precious white flowers have a delicate aspect that's perfect for summer bouquets and mixed arrangements. Left in the garden, the nectar- and pollen-rich flowers attract pollinators, especially bees and butterflies.
A Scabiosa caucasica [Lomelosia caucasica] species, commonly called pincushion flower, Fama White has an upright, clump-forming habit. A quintessential cottage garden plant, pincushion flower works equally well in garden or patio pot. And it's a natural for a cutting garden.
Easy to grow and low maintenance, pincushion flower grows best in sunny to partly shady locations with light, nutrient rich, well-draining loamy sandy to sandy humus soil with a slightly acidic pH between 5.8 and 6.5. The plant benefits from a dry winter mulch. Deadheading spent blooms promotes flowering.
