About Pink & Purple Mix - Astilbe Bulbs
Astilbe arendsii
Seed Type
Root
Also known as
False Spirea
Astilbes are such a joy in the garden with their bright feathery plumes! This mix combines purple and pink, so it makes the perfect accent for other white and yellow flowers in cut arrangements. Deer tend to stay away from astilbes, but pollinators love them. Try placing them in a partially shaded spot near the edge of the woods, but make sure your neighbors can see them!
