Sanguisorba 'Pink Tanna'

A sensational choice to use with grasses or amid perennials in a cottage border. The strawberry pink flower spikes open on narrow stems, and sway in the gentlest breeze creating movement and colour in your garden. This natural beauty is easy care.

A versatile plant, you could place Sanguisorba ‘Pink Tanna’ in the middle of the border for height, or along the edge as the foliage is low growing and you can see through the narrow stems to the plants behind. The flowers bloom from summer to autumn and are great for picking.

Sanguisorba is one of the favourite plants of renowned landscape designer Piet Oudolff.

Grow Sanguisorba 'Pink Tanna' in a cottage garden for late season colour.

Grow in full sun to semi shade in moderately fertile, to humus rich, well drained soil – it is quite obliging and adaptable and can even cope in heavy soils. Water to establish (water regularly for around four weeks so they have time to settle in) and keep moist in active growth. Protect new growth from slugs and snails.

Sanguisorba are commonly known as Burnet.
