Rhapsody is an astilbe perfect for the cut flower grower. Red, pink, carmine, and cream blooms sit atop long, strong stems. A prolific, perennial bloomer that is perfect for market bouquets and wedding work. Keep in mind, the first year they sleep (growing strong roots), the second year the creep (pushing stems and flowers supported by the root system), and the third year they leap (producing prolific blooms)! Rhapsody is considered one of the largest-sized plants of all astilbe varieties making it a perfect cut flower!
