Black Knight Scabiosa Seeds

Dramatic, dashing, and downright irresistible, Black Knight Scabiosa rides into your garden clad in velvety blooms of the deepest burgundy, so dark they’re almost black, each crowned with dainty white stamens that sparkle like stars against a midnight sky. Known as the Pincushion Flower, these striking blossoms perch atop long, elegant, wiry stems that make them a dream for cutting, arranging, and starring in show-stopping bouquets.

Growing 24–36 inches tall, Black Knight thrives in full sun and well-draining soil, holding court from early summer until frost. Pollinators adore it, bees and butterflies flock to its nectar-rich blooms, so it’s as good for your arrangements as it is for your local ecosystem.

Perfect for cut flowers, borders, or simply adding a bit of garden intrigue, Black Knight may be an annual in cooler zones, but in warmer climates, this gallant flower can return for another season of bloom-filled adventures. Whether fresh in a vase or tucked into a lush bouquet, Black Knight is proof that sometimes the most captivating beauty blooms in the dark.
