Lots of astrantia seedlings in the garden here, especially around Ruby Wedding and Gill Richardson, never seen any around Buckland or Roma, my favourite is maxima.
I adore all astrantia and think I have national collection now I am too impatient to sow seed but they do seed naturally really well and divide beautifully and grow into good sized plants in one season I find. I have really heavy wet clay soil and they love it

Did those seeds fall into an envelope Darren?
It sounds like you're doing things right with the astrantia seed so maybe just bad luck?
Its ok nut I've got plenty of aquis. However I'll gladly accept seeds later in the year
OK Fishy. I'll make sure I collect some

It tells you what you need to do to germinate them doesn't it? Let them drop and leave them alone

Looks fresh and bright.
Hopefully my shaggys get going soon, multiple shoots emerging now
