Sanguisorba tenuifolia 'Korean Snow' - 2026

Sanguisorba tenuifolia 'Korean Snow' is a clump-forming perennial with upright, slender stems topped with airy, snow-white, bottlebrush-like flower spikes from midsummer into early autumn. The finely divided green foliage forms tidy mounds, providing a delicate, textured backdrop that enhances the visual impact of the flowers. Its upright and airy habit makes it ideal for adding vertical interest and soft contrast in borders, cottage gardens, and naturalistic or pollinator-friendly plantings.

The nectar-rich blooms attract bees, butterflies, and other pollinators, enhancing ecological value. It thrives in full sun to partial shade in moist, well-drained soil and is low-maintenance, requiring occasional deadheading to maintain neatness and prolong flowering. Non-native to the UK, 'Korean Snow' is prized for its elegant white flower spikes, long-lasting summer colour, and versatility in mixed planting schemes.
