Astilbe x rosea 'Peach Blossom' | Peach Blossom Astilbe
DESCRIPTION
Astilbe x rosea 'Peach Blossom' is a beautiful perennial known for its soft, peachy-pink plume-like flowers that bloom in early to mid-summer. The feathery flower clusters rise above attractive, deeply cut, dark green foliage, creating a delicate yet striking contrast. The blooms gradually fade to a pale cream as they mature, adding a touch of elegance to garden borders or shaded areas.
'Peach Blossom' is a hybrid variety that originates from the breeding of different Astilbe species, selected for its soft color and graceful form. It thrives in moist, shaded garden settings and is particularly valued for brightening up darker areas with its light, airy blooms. Its long-lasting flowers also make it a favorite in cottage gardens, woodland settings, or as a cut flower.
