Field scabious - Knautia arvensis


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.

  2. 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

  3. 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!
