PerennialHeritage Perennial Profile

Here's the complete description for this Heritage Perennial. Drop in any time to see the rest of our collection.

 Plant Number: 1.468.830USDA Zone: 4 - 9 
Sanguisorba officinalis ‘Pink Tanna’
Common name :  Pink Great Burnet
The ornamental Burnet or Bottlebrush are just beginning to be used here in North American gardens. This selection forms a mid-sized mound of lacy grey-green leaves, bearing bottlebrush spikes of deep pink flowers beginning in mid summer. Nice towards the front of a sunny border or in containers. Great for cutting. Plants prefer moist conditions. Clumps may be easily divided in early spring. Cut foliage back if it gets tired-looking after blooming. Most effective when used in large massed groupings.
