• Pros/Cons
• Flower Care
• Quantity Help
• Substitutes

The Good: So sweet, it’s like a crochet doily on a stem! They do not have to ‘bloom’ so they are good to go when you get’em. Very textured heads, which is nice if you’re working with a lot of roses.

The Bad: Can be curvy with droopy head. Has shorter vase life so keep in cool location away from the sun. Sometimes Scabiosa will arrive not bloomed (without petals). They still lend a gorgeous texture to bouquets, bouts, and centerpieces!

• Give the stems a fresh cut, and place in cool water.
• Keep away from heat or sun to extend vase life.

Flower Moxie reserves the right to make changes or substitutions. All substitutions are only done as a last resort, and only when the reasons for doing so are reasonable and genuine. For example, if a flower becomes unavailable (off-crop), incorrect color, or not in good condition to grace a wedding function we will substitute a flower that has a similar color and price-point.

Acceptable Subs: Cream Ranunculus; Lisianthus, Garden Roses; Spray Roses or another flower that works within your specific palette.
