Astrantia major ‘Midnight Owl’
Masterwort |
USDA Zone: 3-9 |
Plant number: 1.088.240
Masterwort is highly regarded by floral designers for the unique umbels of starry flowers, a bit like a refined Queen-Anne’s-Lace in effect, but not at all weedy in habit. This selection features large, purple-red flowers, set inside of silvery bracts from May to late September. Excellent filler plant for a moist area in sun or part shade. Perfect for the border or in containers. Also nice in mixed containers or tubs. Flowers may be cut fresh, or dried for winter arrangements. Easily divided in early spring. Remove faded flowers to encourage more buds, also to prevent plants from self seeding all over. Slug resistant. USPPP: unlicensed propagation prohibited.
