watering

Astilbe 'Verscarmine' Younique Carmine should be watered lightly every 1-2 days during active growth and flowering periods. It is important to provide the plant with sufficient water without overwhelming it. When the soil around the plant becomes dry to the touch, it is time to water. During the dormant period, the plant should only be watered enough to keep it from wilting. If rainfall is abundant, then additional water may not be necessary. Watch for signs of drooping foliage or yellowed leaves to determine if the plant is in need of additional watering.

sunlight

Astilbe ā€˜Vercarmineā€™ Younique Carmine prefers full sun in the morning and partial shade in the afternoon. The plant should receive at least 4 hours of direct sunlight a day. Direct sunlight during the hottest part of the day (midday) should be avoided due to the possibility of foliage burn. Planting in a spot that has shade in the midday will help protect this plant from damage. When the weather is hotter, Astilbe ā€˜Vercarmineā€™ Younique Carmine may need additional shade in the afternoon.

pruning
