Scabiosa ochroleuca

Scabiosa ochroleuca, also known as Cream Scabious, is a graceful perennial that produces soft, pale yellow pincushion-like flowers from mid-summer to early autumn. Well-suited to Irish gardens, it reaches around 60–80cm in height and thrives in full sun and well-drained soil. Ideal for naturalistic planting, wildflower meadows, or mixed borders, it attracts bees, butterflies, and other pollinators. Easy to grow and low-maintenance, Scabiosa ochroleuca adds subtle colour and movement to the garden while supporting local biodiversity.
