Description

One of the best performing and pretty Astrantias we have seen. Tall branching sprays of light to deep red-mauve flowers, each with a ruff of reddish purple bracts appear from May to the end of September. Said to deter slugs, they thrive in heavy clay and almost anywhere the soil stays reliably moist but not waterlogged, so position in a humid, sunny or shady position in a border or near shrubbery. Excellent cut flowers..

Sowing Advice

Sow immediately at any time onto preferably a soil-based compost, covering with fine grit to approximately their own depth. Germination MAY be quicker if kept at 15 to 20 degrees C. but many seeds WILL NOT come up the year they are sown, needing winter chilling after sowing, and ONLY come up with natural spring germination.
