Red Astilbe
Ornamental Foliage and Flowers
 (0 customer reviews)
Gorgeous even when it's not in bloom! The Red Astilbe has feathery plumes, 2 feet tall, which tower above foot-high mounds of burnished bronze-hued foliage in late spring through midsummer. Ideal for cutting if allowed to open fully. Prefers partial shade, but will do well in sun with regular watering.
Bareroot. 2-3 eye root divisions.
Zones: 4-8.
