Succisella inflexa in our garden with Aster x.frikartii Mönch. 14 August 2009 © 2009 SpecialPerennials.com All Rights ReservedSuccisella:  Uncommon relative of Scabious and Knautia with similarly shaped flowers and seed heads. The leaves are long and narrow unlike either of the above. You may find the plants variously and incorrectly under names like Scabiosa lucida or Scabiosa australis. 

Completely hardy. Easy to propagate as the stems readily root on contact with the soil

 

 

Succisella inflexa in our garden with Aster x.frikartii Mônch. 14 August 2009

Succisella inflexa © 2008 SpecialPerennials.com All Rights ReservedSuccisella inflexa : Spreading clumps of long narrow leaves. The globular flowers are about 1/2in across and held on stems above the foliage (flowering height about 2ft). Flowers from July onwards. We believe this is the correct identification for a plant that we obtained as Scabiosa australis.
