Astrantia Plants - Planting & Care Advice

What makes Astrantia Plants special?

Our Astrantia Plants offer vibrant, long-lasting blooms, ideal for borders or containers. These perennials are hardy, low-maintenance, and bring elegant, delicate colour to your garden throughout the season.

Choosing the right soil for Astrantia Plants

Astrantia thrives in well-draining, fertile soil enriched with organic compost. Avoid waterlogged areas, as excess moisture can lead to root rot. They can also flourish in partial shade, making them perfect for woodland-style borders or mixed perennial beds.

How to plant Astrantia Plants

1. Select a location with full sun or partial shade and good drainage.
2. Dig a hole large enough for the root ball and mix in compost to enrich the soil.
3. Position the plant so the crown is level with the soil, backfill and firm gently around the roots.
4. Water thoroughly after planting and apply mulch to retain moisture and suppress weeds.

Caring for Astrantia Plants

• Keep soil consistently moist, especially during dry spells.
• Feed with a balanced fertiliser in spring to encourage strong growth and abundant flowering.
• Remove spent flowers to extend the blooming period.
• Divide clumps every 3–4 years in spring or autumn to maintain plant health.
