Generative characteristics
The flowering period extends from July to October. The head-shaped inflorescence has a diameter of 1.5 to 2.5 centimeters and is surrounded by bracts. The bottom of the head has chaff leaves and numerous flowers that shine on the edge.
The flower smells strongly orchid-like. Each of the hermaphrodite, zygomorphic flowers consists of an outer calyx, calyx and crown . The calyx has five light yellow, 1 to 3 mm long, at the base 0.1 to 0.2 mm wide calyx bristles, which are once or twice as long as the edge of the outer calyx. This has a more or less protruding, around 1 mm wide, undivided skin seam at the top. The crown is fünfspaltig, light blue and has four stamens and under constant ovary with a stylus on.
The fruit is a nut.
The number of chromosomes is 2n = 16.
ecology

Occurrence
Locations are given for the following countries: Belgium , Denmark , Germany , France , Croatia , Austria , Poland , Romania , Sweden , Switzerland , the Czech Republic , Slovakia , Hungary and Turkey .
In Austria Scabiosa canescens occurs scattered in the Pannonian area , otherwise very rarely. The occurrences extend to the federal states of Vienna , Lower Austria , Burgenland and Upper Austria . Scabiosa canescens is considered endangered, in the northern foothills of the Alps as endangered.
This endangered species in Germany occurs only in dry and warm areas such as Thuringia and southern Saxony-Anhalt. It is classified here as a national type of responsibility within the national strategy for biological diversity of the federal government.
The lime-loving scented scabies grows on dry grassland, in sparse pine forests and on stony slopes of the colline to submontane (perhaps also to the lower montane) altitude. In Central Europe it is a character species of the Geranio-Anemonetum sylvestris from the Geranion sanguinei association, but also occurs in plant communities of the order Festucetalia valesiacae or the Cytiso-Pinion or Erico-Pinion associations.
Taxonomy
Scabiosa canescens was first published in 1801 by Franz Adam von Waldstein and Pál Kitaibel . A synonym for Scabiosa canescens Waldst. & Kit. is Scabiosa suaveolens DC.
