Astrantia major ‘Sunningdale Variegated’

Description

Flowers: May-July.  Plant in part shade.  HxS 45x45cm

Beautifully variegated foliage with clear cream edges, looking very imposing in a shady area.  The flowers are a pale pink with green and white bracts.  A superb spring foliage plant disliking hot summer sun, which causes it to lose the variegation.  Cool moist soil in a shady border or woodland.  Variegation usually takes a season to develop in the newer foliage.  Organically grown in peat free compost

Care & Maintenance.

Keep out of full sun. Can be divided in spring but does not come true from seed.
