Astilbe japonica – Colour Flash

A vibrant hybrid of Japanese astilbe with feathery pale-pink plumes that emerge atop glossy, finely divided foliage from early to mid-summer. Foliage begins bright chartreuse in spring, transitions through burgundy-purple in summer, and finishes with warm tones of orange and russet in autumn—offering season-long color interest. Reaches about 18–24″ tall and wide, forming a compact, mounded clump ideal for containers, borders, or woodland gardens. Thrives in consistently moist, humus-rich soil under partial shade and is deer‑ and rabbit‑resistant, making it both attractive and low-maintenance.

  • 1 growing root per pack, 2-3 eyes
  • Foliage changes color
  • Fragrant early‑summer bloom
  • Deer & rabbit resistant
  • Excellent for cutting
