These medium-tall plants in the front or middle of a bed will entice the viewer without completely obscuring the view beyond. The 2 inch flowers are pin cushion shaped. Burgundy wines bloom from summer to fall. The Knautia prefers full sun to partial shade. They should be deadheaded regularly for continuous bloom. Plant in early spring, 2 to 4 weeks before last average frost date. The Burgundy Wines are great for cottage gardens, borders, and meadows.
