Plant description

Beautiful primrose-yellow flowers on towering stems. A close relative of Scabiosa, this tall, clump-forming perennial produces primrose-yellow flowerheads throughout the summer on stout, upright stems.The flowers are loved by bees and other beneficial insects, and the plants have a tendancy to self-seed if not dead-headed regularly. Plant it at the back of a mixed or herbaceous border, or combine it with taller ornamental grasses in a prairie-style style setting.
