The greater burnet is a plant belonging to the rose family (Rosaceae), a large family of dicotyledons. The large burnet usually grows to about 60 centimeters and sometimes even 1 to 1.5 meters. The perennial and hardy plant develops strong, dark brown roots. The light green leaves have fine leaves. The leaf color may appear blue-green on the underside of the leaf. The leaf edges of the mutually opposite leaves (v-shaped) are clearly serrated. Stems and leaves have a smooth surface and are not hairy. Depending on the location, the flowering period starts from mid-June and continues into September. The dark red flowers can consist of 30 to 40 single flowers (with a length between 2 and 6 inches). The flowers provide a lot of nectar and attract various insects and butterflies, including the burnet blue, a highly endangered species of butterfly. The young shoots of the burnet burnet are edible.
