Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Delicate pink flowers, its habit is more erect and it's a better grower than 'Sprite'. ZONE 4

By: Arrowhead Alpines

The feathery shell-pink flowers of this pretty little, edge-of-the-pather decorate 12" mounds of delicate ferny dark-bronze foliage in mid-season; a new and improved A.'Sprite'. PSh-Shade/Med-Damp

By: Forestfarm

This tough little dwarf is a sister to the well-known 'Sprite' differing in lighter green foliage and light pink flowers. Very dense foliage is a nice fern alternative texturally especially with the very freely produced late summer flowers. We grow Astilbe in full sun with ample water and will take a bit drier in some shade.
