QUALITY GUARANTEED

  • Astrantia Rubra, or Masterwort, is a perennial that stands out, cherished for its clusters of deep ruby-red, pincushion-like blooms. Each flower is framed by delicate, papery bracts. This vibrant hue injects both richness and a sense of drama into garden designs, especially in areas where sunlight is scarce.

  • Blooming from early summer to late summer, this particular variety provides enduring colour and texture, a welcome sight when many shade-tolerant plants are flourishing. The flowers float gracefully above the leaves, a delicate touch that complements borders and more relaxed planting schemes.

  • Astrantia Rubra is still a looker, even when it's not in bloom. Its finely cut green leaves offer structure and visual appeal all season long. Supplied as a bare root, it's ready to go straight into your garden beds and borders. It's a good choice for cottage gardens, woodland areas, and even as a cut flower for arrangements.

    • Light Required Prefers partial shade or dappled sunlight; will grow in full sun if the soil is reliably moist.

    Watering Keep the soil consistently moist during the first growing season. Once established, water when the top inch of soil is dry. Avoid overwatering.

    Best Growing Conditions Moist, fertile, rich soil; performs best in loam or clay that retains moisture.
