Astilbe Amethyst
EmailAstilbe Amethyst
With masses of feathery lavender flower plumes and deep green lacy foliage, Amethyst makes a superb stand-alone or adds dramatic background color to perennial borders and beds. Also ideal for naturalizing, it spreads quickly and forms broad clumps. Bring its beauty indoors by adding a plume or two to a cut flower arrangement. Astilbe thrive in shade or semi-shade and will naturalize in regular-to-moist soil—ideal for planting where most flowers won't thrive. After flowers have stopped blooming for the season, Astilbe will continue to provide attractive fern-like foliage until fall. This versatile, easy-to-grow plant tolerates both hot summers and/or a waterside location. 1-2 eye roots.
