♦ Zones:  5 - 7     Height:  24 - 36"     Exposure:  Full Shade to Part Shade ♦

Astilbe ‘Delft Lace’ is ideal in garden settings and will be a superior container plant in nursery culture.  Imagine ‘Peach Blossom’ with fantastic foliage and unbreakable red stems and you have ‘Delft Lace.’ The mighty blooms are held high above the foliage on candy apple red stems.  The buds emerge deep salmon-pink and open to a soft apricot-pink.  It likes average garden soil that is moist, but well drained to get established.  It is good for use in shady foundation plantings, mass plantings, commercial landscapes, urban gardens and containers.  It blooms in early June for 6 to 8 weeks, and the more sun ‘Delft Lace’ gets, the darker its foliage.
