Aruncus aethusifolius
Height x Spread: 30cm x 30cm
Sought after for its attractive neat mounds of filigree foliage and arching plumes of delicate creamy-white flowers produced in early summer. Once it has finished flowering leave the seedheads on, as they add structural interest, and as the autumn approaches both they and the foliage turn the most amazing oranges and reds.
Undemanding to grow, it is perfect for adding texture and lightness to the front of an informal border. A moisture retentive soil in a sunny position is what this little beauty needs to perform.
