ASTRANTIA SEEDS

The Astrantia genus, commonly known as Masterwort, is a captivating member of the Apiaceae family. These herbaceous perennials are admired for their intricate, pincushion-like flowers surrounded by delicate bracts, often in shades of white, pink, green, or burgundy. Astrantia brings a touch of elegance and texture to cottage gardens, borders, and woodland settings.

Native to Europe and western Asia, Astrantia thrives in moist, well-drained soils and prefers partial shade, though it can adapt to sunnier conditions with sufficient moisture. Popular species like Astrantia major are prized for their long flowering period and ability to naturalise in garden settings, creating a soft, romantic effect.

The Astrantia genus is a perfect blend of beauty and resilience, offering a unique aesthetic and versatility for gardeners looking to add charm and sophistication to their landscapes.
