Foam plant? Astilbe?

5 years ago

We moved into a new house last fall and there are a lot of plants that I can’t identify. Would you please identify the plant in the picture for me? I am in zone 6b, Holland, MI. The nearest larger city is Grand Rapids

That is astilbe. For future IDs there is a Nane That Plant forum which is very active.

Thank you so much for the answer. When I posted this it wouldn’t give me the Name that Plant option and I’m not sure what I did wrong.
