The Astrantia Buckland, or Masterwort, is an ideal choice for gardeners looking to add elegance and pollinator support to woodland or cottage-style borders. This herbaceous perennial offers beautiful pale-pink blooms and silver-tinged bracts, thriving in moist, rich soil environments. Potential buyers should keep in mind that as a herbaceous perennial, the plant naturally dies back in the winter, meaning it will appear dormant until fresh growth emerges in the spring.

While not entirely deer-proof, many gardeners find that Astrantia is less preferred by deer compared to other softer-leaved perennials.
It generally begins blooming in early summer and can continue through the season with proper care.
Yes, it can be grown in large containers, provided you keep the soil consistently moist and use a high-quality, moisture-retentive compost.
Simply allow the plant to die back naturally. You can clear away the dead brown foliage in early spring before new growth appears.
It is quite versatile and performs well in both full sun and partial shade, as long as the soil does not dry out.
Astrantia is herbaceous and naturally dormant during these months; wait for warmer spring temperatures to stimulate growth.
This is likely caused by soil dryness; increase watering frequency and consider applying a layer of organic mulch to retain soil moisture.
To ensure success with your Astrantia, plant it in a site with humus-rich, well-drained soil that retains moisture. Prepare the planting hole by incorporating organic compost to improve soil quality. Ensure the plant is placed in a sheltered position, particularly away from harsh, drying winds. Keep the soil consistently damp; if the plant is in a full-sun location, you must monitor moisture levels closely during summer heatwaves. During late autumn or early winter, allow the foliage to die back naturally to protect the crown of the plant. If you receive your plant in a dormant state, do not be concerned if there is no visible growth; keep the soil slightly moist in a cool, protected spot and wait for the spring warmth to trigger new shoots.
