Culture Notes
Astilbes vary in size, bloom shape, bloom color, bloom time and leaf color. Although frequently categorized as a shade plant, they can grow in full sun in moderate climates, but require a rich, moist, acidic soil and some protection in the warmer climates. The flower heads last longer if they are planted to avoid the afternoon sun. After blooming, spring cut to basal foliage. Cultivars, Cattleya, Granat, and White Gloria, have glorious bloom heads and Fanal has dark bronze foliage. Fluffy spikes of colorful, elegant and lacy foliage occur during June and July, for the most part. Astilbes are excellent when used in flower arrangements, either fresh or dried.
