Astilba

Astilba is a perennial herbaceous rhizome plant. The main advantage is shade tolerance, cold resistance and disease resistance. In June-July, on peduncles up to 60 cm high, paniculate inflorescences 20-30 cm long in white, pink and red bloom.

For long-term flowering, the plant needs to provide good watering. There is a dwarf variety of Chinese astilba with a height of 10-15 cm, which blooms in August - September. Astilba has beautiful not only flowers, but also carved leaves, which persist until winter. The soil is suitable for any garden, sufficiently moist in partial shade.
