Astilbes add bright summer color to landscapes, and Rise and Shine Astilbe is one of the brightest. Its hot pink flower plumes appear above delicate light green foliage. Bees love the flowers and so will passers-by. Add Rise and Shine to a favorite garden container as the focus, thriller plant. At a height of about 2 feet and spread of 18 inches, it's also a perfect low border plant for the front of a garden bed or sidewalk edge.
You will enjoy Rise and Shine Astilbe plenty in the garden, but you can cut the flowers for indoor arrangements, too. Or wait until the plumes dry for pretty height in flower arrangements. The lacy-looking flower stems are much sturdier than they appear, and so are the long-lasting plants. Astilbes look best—and the most dramatic—when you plan several together for a mass of hot pink all summer. The versatile little plant can grow well in sun or shade in zones 4 through 9.
Rise and Shine Astilbe Care
Plant Rise and Shine Astilbe in rich, fertile soil for best results. The plant performs best with consistent watering and can die if the soil dries out for too long. Leave fading flower stems and old foliage on the plant for extra winter protection and wait to prune in early spring. You can apply a balanced fertilizer in spring before flowering begins. If the plant's crown rises above soil level, gently push it back down and add an organic compost or mulch around the plant.
Rise and Shine Astilbe Spacing
For mass plantings and borders, place Rise and Shine Astilbe plants about 12 to 18 inches apart from one plant's center to another.

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.

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.
