Feathery white flowers have a fuzzy texture and bloom from spring into summer, making the You and Me Together® Astilbe a welcome addition to an outdoor space. The upright flowers are broad near the bottom and narrow at the top. The Astilbe chinensis You and Me Together® boasts more blooms than other Astilbe varieties for a showy impact. Broad green leaves anchor the white flowers and provide color throughout the summer.
The white flower plumes add texture to a mixed bed and pair well with practically any garden design. Create a stunning mass planting by grouping several Astilbe together. This clump-forming plant will gradually spread and fill in a bed or a container; plant it as a ‘thriller’. Butterflies enjoy the flowers, and deer leave the plant alone. Grow You and Me Together® Astilbe in zones 3 through 8.
You and Me Together® Astilbe Care
Plant You and Me Together® Astilbe in full sun to part shade. A site with morning sun and afternoon shade is ideal. This perennial prefers slightly acidic soil that is moist and well drained to support prolific blooming. Deeply water the plant weekly when the top layer of the soil is dry. Increase watering frequency during a dry spell. Apply a thick layer of organic mulch to support growth and retain moisture.
Divide plants in the spring every few years as the Astilbe spreads. Leave the faded growth in place throughout the winter and remove it in late spring before new growth emerges. Prune the plant after the flowers fade to maintain a tidy look and possibly encourage another flush of flowers.
You and Me Together® Astilbe Spacing
The You and Me Together® Astilbe reaches 18 to 24 inches tall and spreads 18 inches wide. Create a dense planting by spacing plants 18 inches apart or leaving more room; these clump-forming plants will fill the empty areas.

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). We may ask for photos for documentation purposes, but we try to make the process as easy as possible.

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.
