I’ve been purchasing bulbs from A.D.R. for many years. The quality is superior and the service fantastic. Chris and his family have always been prompt and accommodating. If you need it, Chris can find it! I wouldn’t shop anywhere else!

Astrantia 'Star of Beauty' is a floriferous perennial prized for its dome-shaped flower clusters of tiny white blooms with magenta-purple tips, surrounded by elegant papery bracts. Blooming from early to late summer, it thrives in rich, moist, well-drained soil and prefers partial shade, making it ideal for woodland gardens and shaded borders. Resistant to deer and tolerant of wet conditions, it adds texture and long-lasting interest to mixed plantings.
