Astilbe 'Perkeo'

This charming compact perennial is treasured for its finely textured, deeply crinkled foliage and delicate, airy flower plumes. In late spring to early summer, soft rose-pink blooms rise just above the leaves, adding a light, feathery presence to shaded garden spaces.

Ideal for part shade to full shade, it thrives in moisture-retentive, well-drained soil enriched with organic matter. Its naturally neat, mound-forming habit makes it especially useful at the front of borders, along shaded paths, or in containers where close-up detail can be appreciated. The foliage remains attractive well beyond flowering, providing lasting interest through the warmer months.

This variety is particularly well suited to smaller gardens, courtyard plantings and woodland-style designs, where subtle colour and refined texture are valued. Regular watering during dry periods will keep it looking fresh and lush, and a light mulch helps maintain soil moisture. An excellent choice for gardeners seeking dependable performance and quiet elegance in shaded areas.
