| − | These hardy, herbaceous perennials are cultivated by [[gardener]]s for their large handsome, often fern-like foliage, and dense, feathery plumes of flowers. Astilbes are widely recognized for their profuse blooms in full shade. They require a peaty soil for their successful cultivation. Numerous [[Hybrid (biology)|hybrids]] have been raised. Astilbe is a tall feathery flowered plant popular as a pond side feature.
