Sanguisorba parviflora

syn. Sanguisorba tenuifolia var. tenuifolia f. alba

Burnet are vigorous perennials that steal the show when they burst into bloom in summer. Give them moist soil in full sun for best results. They tend to flop so plant them next to sturdier plants.

White Japanese Burnet is a true beauty! Tall stems with long, white flower panicles rise above fine, narrow, almost feathery foliage. Best of all, this plant is very sturdy and rarely flops or requires staking.
