The field scabious has petals with four unequal sized lobes. It could be confused with Devil's Bit Scabious but this species has four lobes that are equal in length.

This is a very beautiful photo! Not only the flower looks nice, but the environment, too.
Dear Victoria
What a beautiful idea, I was searching for journals on tor grass for some stuffy uni work and came upon your site. Thankyou for brightening a gloomy afternoon.
And good luck with your continued search
Love Lisa
Such a pretty photo! I love this Butterfly Blue.. I've tried many different colors, yet they don't fair well in my soil! Nice job capturing this little beauty!
