Scabiosa Mix Seed Bundle
For the dreamiest cutting garden imaginable, we give you the Scabiosa Mix Seed Bundle. Picture a patch of deep burgundy tufts- almost black- with lilac sprinkles, creamy vintage white, impossibly-dainty lace florets, and paper-like cosmic orbs all swaying together in the breeze on their long wild stems, floating like magic, waving to the bees and butterflies. *Swoon*
Itty-bitty flowers artfully arranged together make up a Scabiosa bloom. They are detailed and fascinating up close, romantically striking massed together in a bed, and make the perfect airy compliment in a bouquet alongside the big knock-outs like Dahlias and Lisianthus.
Includes three types of Scabiosa seed tubes individually packed in a little cotton bag: Black Knight, Starflower, and Fata Morgana.
