Astilbe arendsii 'Irrlicht'

Astilbe arendsii 'Irrlicht' is an amazing plant species. It is an herbaceous perennial with lush foliage that provides lovely contrast to the flower spikes. Its low-maintenance and easy to grow, even in shady areas with inadequate soil. The clumps of frilled, fern-like foliage in shades of green create excellent contrast to the spikes of pink, plume-shaped flowers that fade to a rosy-red. It blooms in late spring to early summer and looks great mass planted in a border, as a ground cover, or in a rock garden. A great choice for adding texture and colour to any garden.
