About Astilbe Roots - Ostrich Plume

Thunbergii hybrid

Featured New
Seed Type Root
Also known as False Spirea

Astilbe Ostrich Plume displays brilliant salmon-pink blossoms in elegant, arching plumes that set it apart from typical astilbe forms. We are especially smitten by the large, open, and slightly drooping flowers that rise above dark green, lance-shaped foliage. This tall, late-blooming variety creates a lush, cascading effect in shaded gardens. Astilbe Ostrich Plume creates a stunning focal point when mature, especially near water features or in mass plantings.
