Scabiosa (Pincushion Flower) – The Dancer of Meadow Bouquets. Scabiosa, or Pincushion Flower, is the-embodiment of meadow romance. Florists love it for its delicate, "pincushion" blooms and thin, yet strong, wiry stems that seem to float and dance in a bouquet. It is a symbol of summer and natural beauty.
Florist's Expert View: Two Faces of Beauty For us, Scabiosa is a flower with two faces. First, it's a beautiful, delicate flower in a wide range of colours that adds lightness to an arrangement. But after blooming comes the second phase: the unique round seed heads (resembling a bristly brush), which are a fantastic structural element for autumn bouquets and dried arrangements.
Tip from Andrea (Natural and Meadow Style Expert) "Scabiosa is my absolute favourite for 'invisible' design. Its thin stems look so natural and airy in a bouquet! It's perfect for mixed bouquets in a meadow style and very popular for wedding bouquets, adding tenderness and texture."
Use in Floristry Thanks to its elegance, Scabiosa is ideal for:
-
Mixed bouquets (adds lightness, airiness, and texture)
-
Wedding bouquets in a natural and "boho" style
-
Autumn bouquets (its dried seed heads)
-
Dried decorations
