Astrantia major 'Burgundy Manor' - 2026

Astrantia major 'Burgundy Manor' is a striking perennial known for its rich, deep burgundy, star-shaped flower umbels that rise elegantly above a compact mound of finely divided green foliage. Blooming from late spring to midsummer, the dramatic flowers provide a bold vertical accent in borders, cottage gardens, or shaded woodland areas. This variety attracts pollinators such as bees and butterflies, enhancing garden biodiversity while offering long-lasting visual interest. Its deep burgundy tones contrast beautifully with surrounding greenery, creating a standout feature in any garden setting.

Thriving in moist, humus-rich soils, Astrantia major 'Burgundy Manor' prefers partial to full shade and performs best when soil is kept consistently damp. Low-maintenance and hardy, it benefits from occasional deadheading to encourage prolonged flowering. Its combination of striking colour, delicate foliage, and pollinator-friendly blooms makes it a versatile and rewarding choice for shaded garden spaces.
