Sanguisorba
Burnet
A profusion of oblong, catkin-like blooms resides above decorative pinnate foliage, generating interest for months. Happiest in a sunny spot where the soil stays moist, these hearty perennials offer contrasting clarity to softer, less defined forms in borders or in more naturalized plantings.
Sanguisorba ‘Autumn Red’ (P-2298)
Each 13.00
British plant maven Marina Christopher includes ′Autumn Red’ in her top-dozen favorite Sanguisorba list. This energetic seldom-offered cultivar is characterized by large, saw-toothed loosely-arranged pinnate blue-green foliage that tosses wide-branched skyward stems with burr-like dark red blooms, unfurling from late summer ’til November. Ensconce alongside other long-legged plants such as Aster ‘Orpheus’, Verbena bonariensis and Panicum ‘Northwind’ for colorful late season vignettes.
Blooms July–October
Size: 5' 0" – 6' 0" high x 2' 0" – 2-1/2' wide.
