Persicaria bistorta 'Hohe Tatra' - 2026

Persicaria bistorta ‘Hohe Tatra’ is a robust perennial renowned for its striking spikes of deep pink flowers that emerge from late spring into summer. The upright flower heads rise above clumps of broad, green foliage, providing height, structure, and long-lasting colour in borders, cottage gardens, or naturalistic plantings. Its nectar-rich flowers attract bees, butterflies, and other pollinators, offering both ornamental and ecological value.

Thriving in moist, well-drained soil, this hardy variety prefers full sun to partial shade and forms dense, vigorous clumps that are easy to maintain. Cutting back old stems in late winter encourages fresh growth and maintains its tidy form. Persicaria bistorta ‘Hohe Tatra’ combines bold colour, long flowering, and resilience, making it a reliable and rewarding choice for UK gardens seeking late spring and early summer interest.
