'Dark Side of the Moon' begins with yellow leaves, with a dark margin turning to completely dark rich chocolate as they age. Raspberry buds open to rosy-purple flowers to enjoy all summer long. It attracts pollinators such as bees and butterflies while resisting deer and rabbits!
Please Note: They will grow in full shade but will not bloom as prolifically there.

- Grow in zones 4-9

Care: Care Information: Fertilize Astilbes in late spring before flowering starts. Wait to cut back the old foliage until spring; it will help protect the plant from winter damage. If the crown has risen above soil level in the spring, gently press it back into the ground and cover it with mulch or soil.
