Plant description

A great addition to mixed arrangements in a pot, 'Flutter Pure White' can also be added to a rockery - or drifted through the front of a sunny cottage, wildlife or gravel garden border.

How to care for Scabiosa columbaria Flutter Pure White ('Balflutturite') (PBR) (Flutter Series):
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 a tidy habit and form. Avoid ground conditions likely to become wet or waterlogged during the colder months.
Please note:
This perennial dies back to below ground level each year in autumn, then fresh new growth appears again in spring.
