Sanguisorba menziesii is a graceful perennial that brings elegance and rich colour to summer borders. From midsummer into early autumn, slender stems rise above a mound of fresh green, pinnate foliage, topped with elongated, deep crimson flower spikes that sway beautifully in the breeze. The flowers are loved by bees and butterflies, making this an excellent choice for wildlife-friendly gardens. Perfect for prairie-style plantings, cottage borders and naturalistic schemes, Sanguisorba menziesii pairs beautifully with ornamental grasses and other airy perennials.
