Shell-pink flower plumes float above the compact bronze-green foliage of Astilbe simplicifolia Sprite. The low, spreading clumps reach about 8 to 12 inches tall and 10 to 12 inches wide. They work especially well at the front of a shaded border.
Plant Sprite in partial or full shade and keep its soil rich and consistently moist. It can accept some sun in a cool garden when water remains reliable. A spring layer of compost or mulch helps the shallow root zone stay evenly moist.
The airy plumes provide late-summer color and can be cut for arrangements. Use this dwarf astilbe as edging, a small-scale ground cover, or a container accent. Divide crowded clumps in early spring to renew growth.
