Thanks Ju but that isn\'t actually astilbe in the background of the previous photo. It is actually giant fleece flower. I usually know the proper name but I can\'t spit it out right now. Another senior moment. They come quite frequently these days. Here are a couple more photos at various stages, It is huge. About 6feet tall and nearly as wide and the flowers just last and last and get bigger. Wee on the perennial forum says they are extremely invasive in his zone but not here I dont think. I love it where it is as it hides a big piece of the aging greenhouse. It is similar to the goats beard that I have out front except it is way bigger and the blooms last. With the wet weather we are having right now the goats beard blooms are done in a few days and then look like crap.
Latin name just came to me. Persicaria
