This selection of Astrantia major is more compact than many of the other selections. Its floral heads are more rounded and the flowers are large and showy. The papery bracts that surround the central flowers are pale and show off the pink infused true flowers well. Astrantias make good cut flowers and those of 'Bo-Ann' are no exception. Even on the stem in the garden they hold their pleasing color for a long while.
June to September. 18 in. x 18 in.
