OMG their beautiful! I have 9 pink coming in the mail. Any tips or tricks on how to plant them?


Hi All
I'm brand new at this. Never planted anything before "except the pot my parents made me throw away 35 years ago" I just received a email saying My order shipped. 5 diamond grass and 9 astilbe. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks, Kathy

Really nice! I have a couple of shorter ones...I would love to have more, but I just don't have enough shade.

Plant them is part shade if possible.

They require acid soil.. I use 2 tablespoons of vinegar in a gallon of water.
2 times a year ......

Mine do well.

I aremt sure ,but think age might be a factor in the height. I have both large and small. And have moved hem about 2 different places. First time they were in the shade and didnt like it here.. Maybe the cooler temp played a role..
