Knautia macedonica 'Thunder and Lightning' – Field Scabiosa
A showstopper in the border, 'Thunder and Lightning' is one of the most distinctive Knautia cultivars available. The foliage alone earns its keep — bold, variegated green and cream leaves with a striking 'lightning bolt' pattern create year-round interest even before the blooms appear. From summer through fall, upright stems carry rich purplish-red pincushion flowers that are irresistible as cut flowers and to pollinators. Deer resistant, drought tolerant, and clump-forming with a tidy, upright habit. PP#21,437.
