Hi All!

I've learned a lot about astilbes tonite. TY ALL!

I wouldn't do without them in my shade garden: but I find that many here in my
Indianapolis garden do not survive the winters;so, I treat some as annuals.
Are there any in gold or yellow shades?

Who knows? With our 1000 feet of snow on the ground and temps in the teens,
maybe most of mine will survive.

Do you find that astibles do better in full sun than even in the brightest
form of shade?

I wish there were some with nice foliage--are there?

Thanks,
