Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Flamingo pink and proud of it, long arching, plump floral fingers extend out, gracefully cascading from the slightly fragrant, well branched upright panicles. These tapered, broad, airy towers give a long ladylike showing, while a handsome dark green clump of glistening, jagged-edged leaflets does the footwork. An esteemed Astilbe arendsii descendant, 'Flamingo' never needs staking, easily melds mauves and blues, and holds our interest into winter when its bushy blooms impart rich brown tones.
