Sanguisorba officinalis

 
Common name salad burnet; great burnet
Family rosaceae
Life cycle perennial
Flowers red (summer-fall)
Size 3-4'
Light sun-part shade
Cultural notes prefers moist soil

We grew this burnet in our garden many seasons ago, but it left after a few years. This year, we're trying to re-establish it from seed.

We left this plant behind in our Pennsylvania garden (and wish it well); we don't grow it in Houston.
