Planted upon delivery, a week later the astilbes have grown and floral buds are already present. Fast growth, the final outcome for next summer, 4 stars as there is still no visibility on the young plants' ripeness.

Description

Perennial plants essential for compact, heavy, moist, and marshy soils. They are highly resistant to cold, never sick, and live for a long time in the same spot. In addition to flowering, the foliage, more or less divided, is often decorative, although it disappears in winter.

Amazing plant, compact, with upright spikes of fluorescent magenta colour. Not easy to associate - except with white-flowered plants - but can be seen from far away!
