Add colour, texture and interest to tricky shaded and waterlogged areas of the garden with the sensational perennial, Astilbe Younique Carmine. With vibrant stems of attractive fluffy flowers in eye-catching carmine-red, it is perfect for lifting dull garden spaces.
With attractive fern-like, green foliage that forms into neat mounds, it perfectly contrasts with the striking bright hues of the flowers above. A charming and trouble-free variety, it has long-lasting flowers that gradually turn to caramel tones which can be left on to add winter interest to the garden.
A wonderful addition to shady flowerbeds and borders, filling gaps in the display and adding long-lasting interest, it also looks wonderful in pots and containers softening areas of hard landscaping such as patio, pathways and more. With a floriferous nature, there are more than enough of the charming flowers for snipping and admiring in fresh and dried cut flower arrangements around the home as well.
To ensure you get the best display from Astilbe Younique Carmine, plant it in a shaded or partially shaded spot, in poorly drained or boggy soil. It will then create long-lasting plumes of flowers that return year after year.
