Spinell Astilbe makes a strong seasonal statement with deep crimson-red plumes that rise above fern-like foliage. This mid-to-late summer bloomer adds reliable vertical color to shade gardens, woodland borders, and moist planting beds. New foliage emerges a vivid red in early spring, transitioning to deep green with red stems as the season matures. The result is a multi-season plant that offers both floral interest and attractive leaf color. Long-lasting blooms are excellent for fresh cutting or drying, and the clump-forming habit lends structure year after year.
Deep color for shady borders: Unlike many flowering perennials, Spinell thrives in partial to full shade, where its richly colored blooms stand out against softer greens. The airy panicles add vertical movement and strong contrast in woodland or water-side plantings.
Multi-season foliage interest: Early growth emerges in a vibrant red, offering an extra layer of visual appeal well before blooms appear. By summer, the foliage deepens to a rich green, maintaining garden texture and density long after flowering.
Mid-to-late season performance: Spinell’s flowering window hits just as early-season plants begin to fade. This timing fills the seasonal gap and helps maintain color in the garden from early summer through late July and August.
Reliable structure and low maintenance: This is a clump-forming perennial that builds its presence over time without becoming invasive. With consistent moisture and shade, it performs reliably year after year—ideal for gardeners who want color without constant upkeep.
Excellent cut or dried flower: The long, narrow plumes hold their shape and color both in fresh bouquets and dried arrangements. Spinell’s lasting bloom adds elegance indoors and out.
