Knautia macedonica ‘Red Knight’ produces a long season of deep crimson, pincushion-like flowers held on slender stems above airy green foliage. Blooming from early summer into autumn, it adds height, movement, and colour to borders while attracting bees and butterflies throughout the season.
It thrives in full sun and well-drained soil, flowering freely with very little maintenance. For a balanced, vibrant display, plant it with Lavender ‘Hidcote’ for fragrance and contrast, and Salvia ‘Caradonna’ for depth of colour and structure.
• Sunlight: Full sun
• Soil: Well-drained, moderately fertile soil
• Position: Ideal for sunny borders, cottage gardens, or wildlife planting
• Hardiness: Fully hardy perennial
• Height & Spread: Around 60–80cm tall and 40cm spread
A graceful, long-flowering perennial that brings colour, movement, and pollinator interest to sunny borders all summer long.
Many garden designers recommend planting Knautia in groups of three for a balanced, cohesive look. It helps the plants stand out together and creates a lovely flow in your garden. But don't worry—this plant also looks great on its own or in smaller groupings!
