Description
The Pincushion flowers and the bees which alight, are delightful additions to my home. They grow in full sunlight. Scabiosa atropurpurea (pincushion flower) is a herb/ (family Dipsacaceae) with red to purple flowers and narrow leaves found in the Central Valley and central and south coast ranges of California. It is non-toxic to humans and pets. The best time to plant here in California is in the Fall. While the Pincushion is not considered a weed here in California, it is considered an invasive plant in some countries. The signal of warmer weather brings insects like bees and butterflies. I love Spring!
