There is a painting dating from Elizabethan times, which depicts a lady in an expansive country gardenand behind her you see some lovely Astrantias. Though these Astrantias are pretty, they are not quite as striking as the modern Astrantia 'Sparkling Star Pink'. From Elizabethan England to the present-day, Astrantias have been a mainstay of the garden. However, time has not stood still because Astrantia Sparkling Stars is setting a new standard. A swathe of pink sparkling stars sits atop wiry stems, dancing in the summer breeze, catching the eye of the butterflies as these popular pollinators flutter across your garden. Astrantia 'Sparkling Star Pink' is a low maintenance plant which brings splashes of candy-pink colour even to a shaded spot. Astrantias have an enduring appeal because they are so cheerful and easy to grow. A no-fuss forgiving plant, which will very much enjoy looking like a picture in your garden. Hardy to -20 C, this herbaceous perennial will give you joy for many years to come.
