Plant Care
To keep your Astrantia blooming, simply snip off the fading flower spikes. This little trick will encourage new blooms to appear, keeping your garden vibrant right into late summer. During winter, you'll notice that your Astrantia will die right back, but don't worry! In early spring, it bounces back with fresh growth. To give your ‘Astrantia’ the best care, remember to mulch it well in spring with some good quality compost.
