A refined and richly coloured perennial, noted for its deep burgundy, pincushion-like flowers surrounded by elegant bracts. Blooming from early to mid-summer, with potential for repeat flowering, the blooms rise on wiry stems above a mound of deeply lobed green foliage. This long-lasting flower is a magnet for pollinators and a favourite in both fresh and dried arrangements. Thriving in partial shade and moist, well-drained soil, it adds sophistication and structure to borders, cottage gardens, and woodland edges. 50cm.
