Astrantia major ‘Abbey Road’

Black stems and long-lasting deep magenta thimbles.

Black stems rise from deep green foliage to reveal vivid purple-magenta fragrant blooms that are accented with a white base. Some say this is one of the prettiest astrantias available. Noted for its great vigour, its free-flowering nature from early to late summer, and for producing attractive large deep green leaves.
