With its fern-patterned leaves that transform from green to russet red in fall, this elegant perennial puts on an extended, glorious colour show year in and year out. You'll swoon at its exquisite sprays of creamy white, astilbe-like panicles. The airy inflorescence of these showy, starshaped plumes arrives in early summer, growing horizontally on upright, bronzehued stems above a handsome, shrubby habit.
