Pumila Dwarf Chinese Astilbe Plant - 1 gallon pot

Also known as Dwarf Chinese Astilbe, is a delightful perennial plant. Here are some key features:

• Flowers: It produces stunning, fluffy, rich lavender-purple flower plumes that rise gracefully in late summer to early fall. These showy blooms appear on strong, erect stems above an attractive mound of fern-like green foliage.
• Height: It grows up to 8-12 inches tall (20-30 cm) and extends to 18 inches high with the flowers (45 cm).
• Spread: The plant spreads 12-18 inches (30-45 cm) wide.
• Foliage: The refined, fern-like foliage remains attractive throughout the season.
• Growing Conditions: It thrives in part shade to full shade, preferring organically rich, evenly moist, and well-drained soils. Mulching helps maintain moisture.
• Uses: Perfect for the front of a border, as an edging plant, or as a dense ground cover. It’s also a great choice for shady areas.
• Maintenance: Relatively trouble-free, it attracts butterflies but is deer and rabbit resistant. No deadheading is required unless you dislike the look of faded flower stalks.
• Winter Interest: The dried seedheads provide additional interest later in the season.

Remember to plant it in groups for better visual effects and enjoy its beautiful blooms!
