Astrantia (name in allusion to star-like appearance of umbels). Umbelliferae. Masterwort. Perennial garden plants, grown for the odd and ornamental umbels and attractive habit.
 +
 +
Glabrous and erect low herbs with dark-colored aromatic roots: Lvs. palmately lobed or dissected, petioled, the st.-lvs. often sessile and more simple: fls. polygamous, the sterile long-pedicelled and the fertile short-pedicelled; calyx with 5 foliaceous lobes, more or less tuberculate; petals oblong-ovate, connivent: fr. compressed. — Perhaps a half-dozen species, in Eu. and W. Asia, bearing fls. in leafy-involucred umbels and umbellules, the fls. being white, rose-colored or blush. The astrantias grow a foot or more high, making interesting branching plants for the border, particularly in moist places. Prop, by seeds, and easily by divisions in autumn or spring.

A. helleborifolia, Salisb. (A. heterophylla, Willd., A. maxima. Pall.). 2 ft. or less: radical lvs. 3-lobed, serrate: fls. pink: involucre of about 12 ovate-lanceolate bristly parts. Caucasus.—A. minor, Linn. 8-10 in.: radical lvs. 7-9-lobed, toothed: fls. white: involucre white. Eu. L. H. B.
