Gently arching plumes of flowers and deep green lacy foliage make the Bridal Veil Astilbe a lovely perennial to feature in a landscape. The Astilbe arendsii has tiny, pure white flowers that give the plant a feathery texture. The petite white flowers of this Astilbe start to bloom in June and stay in place through the end of July. The broad fern-like leaves have toothed edges and, during the spring, will have a tinge of bronze before settling into a deep green.
This plant can be used in beds, borders, or mass plantings, and it makes a striking addition to a woodland-inspired garden. The blooms also make wonderful cut flowers. This plant is deer-resistant for dependable flowers and greenery, but pollinators are likely to visit this beauty. As delicate as this plant looks, it is very hardy and grows as a perennial in USDA zones 3 through 8.
Bridal Veil Astilbe Care
This plant does very well in a shade garden, so a spot that receives about 4 hours of sunlight is ideal. Astilbe can live in full sunlight, but lower light is a better fit, especially when grown in warmer regions. Soil should be rich, moist but well-drained, and acidic. Bridal Veil Astilbe can live in damp conditions, but this plant has average water needs, so let the soil mostly dry out before giving it water.
Give the Astilbe a dose of balanced fertilizer in the spring. The growth will die back after the first frost but leave the dead growth in place during the winter to insulate the roots from the winter chill. Remove all of the dead growth in the spring.
Bridal Veil Astilbe Spacing
This darling perennial has an upright growth habit and will grow 24 to 36 inches tall and 18 to 24 inches wide. When creating a dense mass planting, space plants 14 to 18 inches apart.

Plant Addicts Warranty - 1 Year (Extra Purchase Required)
We encourage all plant lovers to purchase the Plant Addicts Warranty, whether you're a new gardener or an expert. There are many variables outside of anyone's control that can cause a plant to die. Hungry animals, drought, poor soil conditions, over watering, diseases & pests are all good examples of what can cause plants to die. The Plant Addicts Warranty is a 1 year warranty protecting you from all of the unknowns and will replace your plant if something were to happen to it.
The warranty is purchased on a per plant basis and must be purchased at the same time as the plant(s). We will cover 100% of the price of the plant, but the warranty does not cover shipping costs. SImply let us know if your plant has died within 1 year of receiving it and we will get you a new one shipped out as soon as possible (depending on the time of the year and availability).

Plant Shipping
Below are some factors we consider when determining when to ship the plants depending on the timing of the order.
Winter to Early Spring
We ship only when it's warm enough to plant in your growing zone.
Sometimes plants aren't completely ready to sell and ship in early spring. We will wait until the plants are ready before shipping so you don't get a subpar product.
For Southern plants we will be able to ship much earlier than plants coming from our northern nursery.
Summer
If there is extreme heat we may delay shipping for a week or several weeks.
We review what areas the plants are traveling through as well as your location.
Fall into Winter
We’ll ship plants out all the way up to the end of the fall planting season!
Winter
Get your order in early to reserve your plants for Spring planting!
Once your plant is shipped you’ll receive an automated email with tracking information.
