They like damp soilComment

In fact if you let them dry out they die... the only time I've managed to keep them going is when I planted them in a pondside bog garden. They loved it there and flowered their heads off.Originally posted by Fleurisa View PostComment

Definitely Astilbe, lovely plant. Can't keep them myself , they need damp conditions.Gardening forever- housework wheneverComment

and Astilbe x crispa "Perkeo"

There are lots of different Astilbes now and I love them. I actually haven't had any trouble growing them either. I grew three in pots then transferred them to the garden where it is shady but not overly damp. Only thing I find is that the colours fade quite quickly and become brownish. Still lovely structurally though.Sanity is for those with no grasp of realityComment

Aruncus is similar and a bit easier to grow in dryer spots.Whooops - now what are the dogs getting up to?Comment
