Astilbe japonica 'Montgomery' (Ships in Spring)

False Spirea

Astilbe 'Montgomery' is a compact, clump-forming perennial with fragrant, dark magenta-red flower plumes that bloom in early to mid-summer. The blossoms rise above deep green, glossy foliage that emerges bronze-red in spring, adding seasonal interest. Thriving in part to full shade, it prefers moist, well-drained soil and requires consistent watering to maintain its lush appearance. Resistant to deer and rabbits, it is a reliable choice for woodland gardens, borders, and containers. Suitable for USDA zones 4-9, it provides long-lasting color and texture in shaded landscapes.

Growing and Maintenance Tips for Astilbe japonica 'Montgomery' (Ships in Spring)

Planting: Best planted in spring or fall, avoiding the hottest part of summer. Set bare-root divisions 2 to 3 inches deep, ensuring the crown is just below the soil surface.
Location: Prefers partial shade, though it can tolerate full sun with ample moisture.
Soil: Requires rich, moist, well-drained soil with a slightly acidic pH around 6.0.
Watering: Keep soil consistently moist; drought can cause foliage to brown.
Spacing: Plant 12 to 24 inches apart, depending on variety.
Fertilization: Apply organic matter or balanced fertilizer in early spring to support strong blooms.
Pruning: No deadheading needed; cut back foliage in late winter before new growth emerges.
Propagation: Divide clumps every three to four years in early spring or fall.
Pest & Disease: Generally pest-free, though Japanese beetles may feed on foliage. Avoid excessive moisture to prevent fungal issues.
