Sue's Notes about Astrantia major Gill Richardson Group (Hattie's pincushion, Masterwort 'Gill Richardson')

I first spotted this at shows in 2008 and have been on the look out for it since. The flowers are a brighter red than some of the other red astrantias and it's vigorous too.

Sorry, this plant is out of stock
