It is best to plant Scabiosa in full sun, with well-drained soil and it should be watered regularly throughout the warmer months to increase its overall performance. Deadheading after the first bloom will encourage repeat bloom time. ‘Pink Lemonade’ is great for attracting butterflies and hummingbirds and does excellent in rock gardens.
