Scabiosa caucasica
A beautiful perennial that we love on the farm not only for its large petals but also for its round seed heads suitable for drying. Although smaller than the starflower Scabiosa, it is ideal for arrangements. Bees and bumblebees also can't get enough of this perennial! Just be careful, it doesn't like high humidity as it risks rotting, so it is better suited for a semi-dry, sunny location. For drying, we harvest mature seed heads, roughly from mid-July. Just hang them upside down, in a dry and ventilated place, out of sunlight.
