Super Seeds Scabiosa stellata Starflower Puncushions Drumstick 10+ Pcs

When you see this scabiosa, you understand instantly why the scabiosa is also called the pincushion flower. The Dutch, however, call it the equivalent of ‘pigeonwort’ due to its uncanny resemblance to a pigeon that has ruffled its feathers. You can cut Scabiosa Drumstick flowers when they are blue and fresh, but the spheres are actually even prettier when dried. Their transformation from bud to flower and subsequently to pincushion-like sphere is a fascinating process. Once dried, they remain beautiful for months.
