Details: ASTILBE `PEACH BLOSSOM` Everyone knows Astilbes are the definitive perennials for the shade or woodland garden and this selection is one of the best at filling this niche with color and low maintenance beauty. It's a sure thing, being deer and rabbit resistant, and butterflies love it for its soft, peachy-pink, airy plumes of bloom that rise above the rich fern-like foliage starting in late May or early June. 'Peach Blossom' is one of the most drought-tolerant selections of the genus and it will flower into early July for an extended show you'll look forward to every year. 'Peach Blossom' will tolerate morning sun but make sure it has enough shade so that it dependably lights up a darker area of your landscape. Grow Tips Astilbe's should be pruned in the early spring after the last frost. Pruning them in early summer is an option but the longer you wait the more flowers could be lost to the prune. You can prune off spent flowers to keep your plant looking tidy but too much pruning late in the season can spur new growth that is delicate and may be killed off by frosts in the fall and winter and cause undo stress to the plant as well as an unsightly plant.
