Color Flash Astilbe - 1 Gallon Container
The foliage is the main attraction in this variety. The foliage emerges in spring as a vibrant electric green. As the season progresses, it develops shades of burgundy and purple mixed with green. In the fall, the leaves transform into beautiful hues of gold, orange, and russet. This multi-toned foliage provides a "flash" of color throughout the seasons. It produces soft, light pink flower plumes that rise above the colorful foliage in early to mid-summer. The flowers are delicate and airy.
