Hardy Perennial. Heavenly blue flowers float above deep green, mounded foliage on 1 to 2 foot stems. These blooms emerge in mid-summer and persist until the first frost. Sturdy and long-lasting, these scabious-like blooms make a delightful addition to a summer or autumn fresh floral arrangement. They make an excellent cut flower and have a delicate fragrance.
