Sanguisorba obtusa, also known as the Japanese burnet, is a flowering plant that belongs to the Rosaceae family. It is native to Japan, specifically the Honshu region. This herbaceous perennial can grow up to 1.5 meters tall and 1 meter wide, with grey-green leaves and eye-catching bright pink bottle-brush type flowers on thin stems during the summer. It is a rhizomatous plant, meaning it has underground stems that produce new shoots. In cultivation, it can thrive in various conditions, from full sun to partial shade, as long as the soil is kept moist.
