Planting and Growing Information
Filipendula 'Venusta' thrives in consistently moist, fertile soil in full sun to partial shade locations. Plant bare roots in spring, spacing plants 3-4 feet apart to accommodate their mature spread. This hardy perennial performs beautifully in USDA zones 3-7, blooming from early to mid-summer with its spectacular pink plumes. For best results, maintain consistent soil moisture, especially during dry periods, as the foliage may scorch if allowed to dry out completely.
