Astilbe, with its graceful, fern-like foliage is a great addition to a part-sun to part-shade garden.

Adding compost to make the soil more humusy and rich along with mulch will help your Astilbe produce full clusters of hundreds of densely-packed flowers that can be left to produce dried seed heads.
