ASTILBE
******************************************
HELPFUL TIPS ON GROWING ASTILBE
Astilbe are deer resistant perennial flowers that bloom in spring and summer. They have soft feathery purple, lavender, red, white or multiple shades of pink blooms with glossy fern like foliage. Some Astilbe have bronze foliage or a deep brown foliage. They grow well in shady areas where other flowers won't thrive. Astilbes attract butterflies. At Vineyard Gardens we carry 25-30 different cultivars.
