Plant Features

Astilbe chinensis 'Rise and Shine' dazzles the garden with its vibrant cascade of hot pink, pyramidal plumes, effortlessly extending up to 8 inches in a vivid display that interweaves pinks, reds, and purples, energizing the garden tableau. From midsummer to the cusp of fall, its robust, self-supporting flower stems ensure a steadfast, striking display, eliminating the need for staking and establishing a mesmerizing, enduring focal point within the landscape, enchanting viewers with its lively and spirited floral spectacle. Rise and Shine is shipped as a bare root, a method we favor for its ability to establish quickly, double in size compared to its potted counterparts within the first season, and omit the necessity for plastic pots—providing an eco-friendly advantage.

 

Common Names: chinese astible, false spirea, false goat's beard

Astilbe Plant Care Instructions: Ensure your plants remain consistently hydrated, as allowing them to dry out can be detrimental. The faded flowers may be pruned to encourage further blooming, or left intact to add enduring visual interest to your garden. Come early winter, consider trimming back the foliage to a modest 2 inches above the ground to promote healthy, vibrant growth in the forthcoming spring season.
