ASTILBE chinensis Hot Pearls (Hot Pearls Astilbe) A dashing display of rosy-red, feathery plumes create a bold pop of color. Blooming in summer, this hardy perennial makes an appealing cut flower that adds a frothy feel to a vase or bouquet. The bright green foliage forms a dense clump which contrasts well with its showy summer display. Astilbe chinensis ‘Hot Pearls’ is ideal for planting in lightly shaded spots with a reliably damp soil, where it creates a spectacular focal point.

A Northern Sunset perennial, it prefers rich, moist soil in part shade to part sun.
