Astilbe 'Chocolate Shogun' (Chocolate Shogun Astilbe) has gorgeous glossy chocolate-purple foliage with a bronze tinge - a beautiful contrast to its blush pink spire blooms. An essential perennial addition for the shade garden, Chocolate Shogun False Spirea Astilbe will keep your garden colourful all season long.
Growing to a height of 60 cm (2 feet), Chocolate Shogun False Spirea Astilbe can tolerate some sun, but prefers partial to full shade, which will maintain the deep colour of the foliage. The upright clumping habit of Chocolate Shogun Astilbe is perfect for borders and containers. The blush pink panicles have darker pink tips and stand on red stalks, and move gracefully in the smallest breeze. These black Astilbe flowers make great cut flowers for both fresh and dried floral arrangements.
Astilbe 'Chocolate Shogun' (Astilbe x arendsii 'Chocolate Shogun') will attract butterflies and other beneficial pollinators to your garden.
