Astilbe - Amethyst - Purple-pink plumes, star of summer borders - Bare root - 1 pc

Astilbe 'Amethyst' forms tall, spreading clumps with distinctly defined, fluffy flower plumes held on rigid stems. Their purple-pink colouring stands out clearly against the deeper green of the foliage, allowing the plant to bring a noticeable yet never overpowering accent to the planting scheme. The whole plant maintains a neat, orderly habit and sits particularly well within partially shaded arrangements.

The recommended planting depth is 5-10 cm.

Winter care

Use

Astilbe 'Amethyst' performs well in perennial borders and in group plantings. It may be planted singly or in larger combinations with other shade-loving plants, such as ferns or hostas. It also looks very effective near water features and in naturalistic gardens.
