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 ‘Burr Blanc’ (P-2207)
Each 13.00
Often touted as one of the best Sanguisorbas to grow, this elegant hybrid seedling was selected from a group of Sanguisorba tenuifolia var. parviflora plants by Graham Gough at Marchants Hardy Plants, his East Sussex nursery. Copious cylindrical green buds plus elongated, slightly nodding snowy-white flowers gambol upon lithe, upright branching stems and attractive pinnate foliage that’s intricately cut into narrow, saw-toothed oblong deep green leaflets. Presenting a reliable and peppy persona coupled with long-standing pollinator-friendly blooms, ‘Burr Blanc’ can be situated amid Boltonia ‘Snowbank’, Eryngium yuccifolium and Echinops ‘Platinum Blue’ for luminous color echoes.
Blooms July–mid October
