not something I have grown or have any knowledge about. Not that I would know where to put it ....I have a rodgersia that was recommended to me but not yet planted so.......
We have two Sanguisorba Arnehm. They are in full sun, on heavy clay which has been enriched by lots of manure/compost. They require little attention, although they flag a bit during extended hot spells if not watered. I don't bother to stake the flowers, but you may need to. I'd love to know how to cultivate more, anyone have any advice about division or propagation from seed?
I have Sanguisorba Hakusanensis and it looks wonderful at the back of my border. The leaves are lovely, just starting to make an impact now, and then you get those gorgeous tall stems with lots of dangly long pinky-lilac lambs tails, quite unlike anything else. I also have the little native burnet doing well in my damp shady meadow.

Hi Verdun. I grow Sanguisorba tanna in garden bordering my pond where it seems to associate well with Geum rivale also growing there.
I forgot to say that I love it ........... but then there are not too many nice garden plants that I don't love!

You won't be able to read this Verdun, but I grow Tanna too. Lovely foliage, and maroon drum stick flowers. Also seems to cope with some shade.

I love this plant. It tolerates cold, drought wind and neglect! I planted in groups of three about 8 years ago.
its a lovely cut structure in a vase too and has a huge shelf life

I have it between stachys and geraniums. It's a favourite here

I have a dwarfish white one - maybe 'White Tanna', can't remember. It's lovely in shade, beautiful leaves and long-lasting flowers.
