The genus Astilbe belongs to the Saxifragaceae family. Most species are native to E-Asia. They need fairly moist soil and a sunny, sheltered position. Many cultivars flower too late for Icelandic conditions and it's therefore important to choose early flowering cultivars.
Propagation:
Division in spring.
Japonica hybrids flower fairly reliably and tend to flower earlier than Arendsii hybrids.
