Description / Astilbe 'Peaches and Cream' False Spirea

Astilbe 'Peaches and Cream' is a standout shade perennial, reaching 22 to 26 inches tall with plumes that change color as they bloom. From white to pink to apple blossom hues, the dynamic flower clusters add vibrant movement to the garden. The blooms dry to a rich caramel tone, ensuring lasting texture and interest. Carried on tall stems above feathery foliage, the fragrant flowers attract pollinators, like bees and butterflies and are perfect for fresh or dried floral arrangements.

A hybrid of Astilbe x arendsii, commonly called false spirea, 'Peaches and Cream' thrives in Zones 4-8. Known for its resilience, this astilbe performs well even in less-than-ideal conditions. It's ideal for middle borders, shade gardens, or woodland settings, and its compact size makes it suitable for container gardening, too.

Adaptable and easy to grow, 'Peaches and Cream' prefers part shade to dappled light but will tolerate full shade in warmer climates and full sun in cooler regions with afternoon shade. Keep the soil consistently moist, rich, and slightly acidic (pH 6.0) to ensure healthy growth. Regular watering during hot or dry periods and spring fertilization will encourage its impressive blooms. Naturally resistant to deer and rabbits, this low-maintenance perennial is a reliable choice for any garden.

Plant Astilbe 'Peaches and Cream' roots in spring, 1½ to 2 inches deep, and space them 18 to 24 inches apart for optimal growth.
