Description

Add a touch of early spring drama to your garden with Pulsatilla ‘Pinwheel Red’. With its velvety, deep red petals and golden yellow centre, this striking perennial is one of the first to bloom – often flowering just as winter fades. Its feathery, finely divided foliage and silky seedheads add extra interest, even after flowering. Lovely in rockeries, gravel gardens, or mixed with low-growing alpines and spring bulbs.
