Hello Harry,
The list you seek is a long one on dwarf Astilbe. Among the hybrids with no
definite parentage you may want to try "Darwins Dream" at 10" and true deep pink.
Darwins Favorite" is a 15" with pinkish plumes and glossy foliage. My favorites
are the A. chinensis children.. Pumila 10" lilac-rose, Serenade a 14" red-rose. In
the simplicifolias Darwin Snow Sprite at 12" and white, Inshriach Pink at 10" and
light pink blooms.
Just depends upon whose catalog you pick up and see what astilbe they offer.
Lots of good "stuff" out there to play with, Harry.
