Astilbe 'Rheinland' Bare Root Divisions (Minimum Quantity: 25 Divisions)
Astilbe ‘Rheinland’ is a stunning, compact perennial known for its feathery, rose-pink plumes that rise gracefully above a mound of deep green, fern-like foliage. Blooming in early to mid-summer, this variety brings a soft, romantic charm to shaded gardens, woodland edges, and moist borders. The delicate yet vibrant flowers create an eye-catching contrast against the finely textured leaves, adding depth and movement to the landscape. As a shade-loving plant, ‘Rheinland’ thrives in dappled light and consistently moist, well-draining soil, making it an excellent choice for areas where other flowers may struggle.
Beyond its beauty, Astilbe ‘Rheinland’ is a hardy, low-maintenance plant that resists deer and rabbits while attracting pollinators like bees and butterflies. Its compact size, reaching about 18-24 inches tall, makes it perfect for smaller gardens, containers, or mass plantings for a bold color display. Even after the flowers fade, the dried seed heads add winter interest, providing texture and structure to the garden. Whether planted along shaded pathways, near water features, or as a companion to hostas and ferns, ‘Rheinland’ delivers a touch of elegance and effortless beauty season after season.
