Aruncus
Goat's Beard
When you think of the fringes of a wooded area, think Aruncus. With delicate ivory plumes that make sterling cut flowers, Goat’s Beard is similar to Astilbe, although its sprightly form is more open. A natural beside a pool or stream, this trouble-free perennial favors moist soil, but can handle drier situations and some wind.
Aruncus x ‘Guinea-Fowl’ (P-2079)
Each 12.00
Bred by famed German plantsman Ernest Pagels, this low-growing floriferous cultivar is a cross between the European species Aruncus dioicus and the dwarf Korean native, Aruncus aethusifolius. Crinkled finely cut pinnate greenery cloaks an attractive compact mound, which once established, propels as many as one hundred 12 to 18 in. tall, arching flower stems, plus manages to maintain a trim appearance throughout the season. Staged in a horizontal fashion, petite creamy-white blooms festoon the copious, closely packed short wands, thought by some to resemble feathers, hence the curious namesake.
Blooms June–July
Size: 18" – 2' 0" high x 18" – 2' 0" wide.
Hardy to zone 5.
