    Larger than average, rich blue flowers top the stout stems of this compact scabious over several months in summer. Sought after by bees, the flowers are also excellent for cutting.

    Garden care: Protect young plants from slug damage using environmentally friendly slug pellets or beer traps. Deadhead regularly to prolong flowering and cut back in autumn to maintain tidy habit and form. Avoid winter wet.
