Elegant and uniform cut flower. Black Knight produces 1 1/2-2 1/2", dark black aubergine blooms atop tall, strong, and slender stems. The color adds a vintage look to mixed bouquets. In the garden, it serves as an attractant for bees and butterflies. Also known as mourning bride.

Pincushion 'Black Knight'
Scabiosa atropurpurea

This uniquely colored pincushion variety is an exciting new introduction from the Netherlands. Delicate, button-like flowers are a lovely blend of black and deep aubergine and I’m positive they’ll be on every floral designer’s must have list in the coming season. In addition to being a fantastically productive cut flower, this darling is loved by bees and butterflies too.
