'Montgomery' astilbe, scientifically known as Astilbe japonica, injects vibrant energy into shaded and partially sunny gardens with its stunning dark magenta red flowers. This variety is a welcome addition to areas that crave pops of color and thrive in less sunlight. The blossoms, resembling fluffy plumes, grace the garden in midsummer, slightly earlier than its astilbe counterparts, ensuring a timely burst of floral charm.
What sets 'Montgomery' apart is not just its captivating blooms but also its foliage, which remains captivating from spring through fall. As the new leaves emerge in spring, they boast an alluring bronze-red hue, gradually transitioning to a deep, glossy green as the season progresses. This foliage transformation adds depth and interest to the garden throughout the growing season.
In shade gardens, 'Montgomery' astilbe harmonizes beautifully with other shade-loving companions like coral bells and hostas, creating visually appealing and balanced landscapes. Beyond its aesthetic appeal, this variety also serves as a magnet for beneficial pollinators while naturally deterring deer, contributing to a thriving and protected garden environment.
