- Blooms for 4 weeks or more

General Information:
Aruncus is a bold, showy plant for a moist or partly shaded spot. Ivory white, Astilbe-like plumes top plants in summer. Perfect for a woodland garden or beside water. Foliage remains attractive all summer.
Plant Care:
May take a season to get going, but then is very established. Division is difficult and not usually needed. Trim spent flowers in midsummer after bloom to stimulate rebloom.
