Astrantia maxima, or great masterwort, is a Central and Eastern European herbaceous perennial. Its star-shaped florets surrounded by petal-like bracts bloom in pink, red, or white, ideal for floral arrangements. Thriving in partial shade and well-drained soil, it’s favored in woodland gardens for its beauty and appeal to pollinators.
