Astilbe glaberrima var. saxatilis
Miniature form of astilbe, ideal for rock gardens, alpine troughs or the front of shady borders. It forms a low, spreading mat of finely divided, glossy green foliage, topped in early to midsummer with soft pink flower plumes that gently arch above the leaves.
Unlike taller astilbes, this variety is prized for its subtlety and scale, offering delicate texture and colour without overpowering neighbouring plants. It enjoys consistent moisture and partial shade, thriving in humus-rich, well-drained soil.
A refined and rarely offered species, perfect for small spaces or collectors of choice woodland and alpine plants.
Sold currently in 1 litre pots.
Height & Spread: 15–20cm x 30cm
Position: Partial shade
Soil: Moist, humus-rich, well-drained
Flowering Time: June to July
