A dense carpet of fern like foliage surrounding handsome feathery plumes of bright pink flowers. This vigorous performer is a compact, semi-dwarf variety that is very hardy and pest resistant. Grown for their beautiful dark foliage, Astilbes are quick growing. The flowers are highly fragrant, attracting butterflies and bees to your garden, however snails don't like them.
