Re: [SG] astilbe question


Claire,

Yes, they are in my garden.  In fact, they are about the only ones that
really flourish when we have very dry spells; all the others, despite
constant watering, are distinctly unhappy.  I find they do tend to seed
around a fair amount - OK if they hit a border, but a royal pain when they
choose the cracks in the flagstone ;-)
