Dutchgrown Uk Spring
Astilbe 'Chocolate Shogun' is an exceptional perennial that brings a dramatic touch to shaded areas of the garden with its deep, chocolate-coloured foliage and soft, airy plumes of pale pink flowers. This striking contrast creates an eye-catching display that stands out in any planting scheme. Perfect for British gardens, this variety thrives in cooler climates and performs best in moist, well-drained soil, making it ideal for borders, woodland gardens, and shaded beds.. Reaching a height of approximately 60 cm (2 feet) and spreading to around 45 cm (1.5 feet), 'Chocolate Shogun' adds texture and rich colour where other plants might struggle to make an impact. The delicate flower plumes appear in mid to late summer, creating a long-lasting show that attracts pollinators, enhancing the ecological value of your garden.. Supplied as bare root plants, Astilbe 'Chocolate Shogun' establishes quickly with minimal care, flourishing in partial to full shade and requiring consistent moisture for best results. This variety pairs beautifully with hostas, ferns, and other shade-loving perennials, making it a perfect choice for creating layered, visually interesting planting displays..
