Native cultivar* Lavish, cotton-candy pink flowers float above foliage on branching stems, resembling fluffy clouds. The foliage, just as lush as the fragrant flowers, features maple-like serrated leaves with striking dark veining. In spring, the leaves of Filipendula Red Umbrellas are a rich green, becoming slightly lighter as the plant blooms. The leaves also have a quilted, textured appearance due to their prominent veining. Meadowsweet is a carefree perennial. Birds, bees, and butterflies will appreciate it for its flowers and seeds. Its long flower stems are great for cut flower bouquets.
