Moist soil is the key to success. Give astilbes a
good soil with plenty of organic matter and regular watering. They will
thrive at pool and pond margins if soil isn't saturated. All grow in full
sun, provided moisture is available; but filtered sunlight or part shade is jus
as satisfactory and necessary in hot summer regions. Plant in autumn or
spring. When bloom production declines in 4-5 years, divide old clumps in
spring.
