Looking after Your Astilbe Fanal
Generally pest and disease free, a low maintenance and easy to grow flowering perennial, preferring a moist, humus rich soil. Late Autumn remove any dead or damaged foliage, apply a mulch of well rotted garden compost, ensuring any exposed crowns are covered. Early Spring is an ideal time to propagate by division or re-locate your Astilbe, and provide a good quality general purpose fertilizer to encourage strong, healthy, fresh new growth during the coming season.

*Please Note: We may remove some of the soil before shipping. Plant may be trimmed for shipping purposes if it is too tall.
