Pincushion flowers are one of those perennials that are often overlooked because they aren't as flamboyant as some of the summer blooming annuals, and may not be in full swing by the time gardeners are planting out their summer gardens. 'Giga Blue' pincushion flower may remedy this oversight, with violet blue, dome-shaped flowers that measure three inches across and bloom from mid-spring into the summer. Slightly fuzzy, fern-like foliage adds wonderful texture to container planters, hanging baskets, borders, and any sunny garden spot. Even better, this reliable perennial comes back year after year, making it an easy addition to sunny gardens.
