Scabiosa Kudo White ('Ichwit') (Kudo Series)
pincushion flower
If the spent flowers are deadheaded regularly, 'Kudo White' will carry on producing its larger than average, button-like flowers all the way throughout the summer. Attractive to bees and other pollinating insects, the flowers of this scabiosa look great when woven through a mixed or herbaceous border, but they are also perfect for a wildlife-friendly patch or more naturalised planting schemes.
How to care for Scabiosa Kudo White ('Ichwit') (Kudo Series):
