Ice Cream is a charming Astilbe cultivar that suits almost any outdoor space. Glossy dark green foliage gives way to upright stems bearing feathery plumes of sweet, pale pink flowers from June to August. These spikes of tiny flowers give off a cottage garden vibe and are well suited for flower beds and borders. Also known as False Goat’s Beard, Astilbe is an undemanding plant that requires very little maintenance to flourish. These outdoor plants prefer reliably moist soil where they thrive in full sun or partial shade. Planted in drier soil types, they prefer shade, growing well in less bright parts of the garden. Water Astilbes generously during dry spells and cut back to ground level in winter. These herbaceous perennial plants die back over the colder months before sprouting back to life the following spring. This cultivar reaches an eventual height of up to 80cm and spread of up to 45cm.
