Scabiosa japonica 'Alpina'
Genus: Scabiosa
Species: japonica
Variety: 'Alpina'
Plant Type: Perennial (Alpine)
Perhaps the most compact variety you can buy, making a dense, low mound of grey-green foliage from which rise lots of pretty, pale blue 'pin cushion' flowers from June to August. As with all scabious, it's adored by butterflies and bees, etc.
