Deluxe Astilbe Collection

This collection includes two each of the following astilbes. Varieties are labeled for ease of planting.

• Fanal: Scarlet-red plumes will truly stand out in your flower garden with their deep, rich colour. Each contains hundreds of florets that create eye-popping beauty wherever they are grown. This low maintenance, long-blooming shade plant likes “wet feet”: that is to say, it performs well in wet soil. A 1993 winner of the Royal Horticultural Society’s Award of Garden Merit.
• Deutschland: Deutschland’s reliable summer blooms make it a standout choice for woodland gardens, where it thrives in rich, consistently moist soil. The elegant flowers emerge in early to midsummer, offering both graceful movement in the garden and long-lasting beauty in arrangements. Plant en masse along shaded pathways, weave through the front of border plantings or pair with plants of contrasting colour. This vigorous grower’s bronze-tinged foliage adds lasting textural interest even after blooms fade.
• Lavender: Effortlessly bridging the gap between sun and shade, these ethereal plumes of lovely lavender blooms rise gracefully above dark green, deeply cut foliage, creating a soft, enchanting presence from early to midsummer. Standing up to 32" tall, this deer-resistant perennial thrives when planted in groups along shaded pathways or as a woodland garden accent. The feathery flower spikes make excellent fresh-cut or dried arrangements.
• Peach Blossom: Densely packed plumes of salmon-pink flowers dance above lacy, deep green foliage in this shade-loving perennial. The Peach Blossom Astilbe thrives in woodland settings, along shaded pathways and as a companion to ferns and hostas. Plant en masse for dramatic impact, or position at the centre of borders where its soft hue can bridge the gap between neighbouring plants.
