When you are fortunate enough to own and grow the Astrantia Sparkling Stars Collection, you have something quite special indeed. In three colours of Red, Pink and White, these Astrantia break the mould, with their pin-cushion flowers being a magnetic attraction to butterflies, the amount of flowers they produce, their ability to grow in the shade, in the sun, in poor soil, in good soil, swaying in the summer breeze on their wiry stems, requiring little or no maintenance - what a classic cottage garden plant. Modern Astrantias continue a historic tradition dating back to Astrantias being grown in gardens since Elizabethan times, being featured on old paintings and medieval brides carrying white Astrantias in posies. Now this Sparkling Stars collection will create for you a lovely, vibrant picture wherever you choose to grow them and each year they just get better and better.
