Bloomsz Three Great Shade Patio Perennial Collection, Flower Bulbs, Roots, 3pk

Shady patios can be beautified with our three container plants that will not only thrive but also provide color that is often lacking in shade garden collections. The Astilbe and Hosta are true perennials that not only come back year after year, but they will also live a very long time. Astilbe bear showy pink, plume-like flowers on tall, stiff stalks above fern-like, glossy foliage. Hosta's large, bold leaves have various shapes. Some leaves have deep green centers and creamy white margins that turn snowy white with age and others have light green leaf centers that turn gold toward early summer Mauve or pale lavender funnel-shaped flowers bloom atop long scapes in mid-summer. Both Hostas and Astilbe love plenty of water, so be sure the containers receive adequate rainfall or water and among the easiest to grow of all perennials. Fast-growing and can be divided every three to four years or thereafter as containers become crowded.
