Good plant #131 - Scabiosa Caucasica 'Clive Greaves'

This is another of my favourite Scabious - hardy and generous-flowering.  This one has large and very long-lasting flowers - sometimes from May right through to November if you regularly remove fading flowers.   They look great in cottage and prairie planting schemes.

Scabious need sunny positions and thrive in well-drained soil.

They can be divided in Spring.
