Astrantia major 'Sunningdale Variegated'

 

Masterwort 'Sunningdale Variegated'

Clump-forming herbaceous perennials with 3-lobed glossy leaves and branching stems. The flower-heads are excellent for fresh and dried flower arrangements. The mid-summer blooms are produced in star-like whorls of papery bracts in a range of colours - creams, pinks, greens, reds and plums. Astrantia Major usually grow to around 60 cms. 'Sunningdale' is grown more for its green and cream foliage than for its small whiteish flowers with a flush of pink.
