Add height, texture and elegant flowers to shadier parts of the garden with our Actaea Bare Roots. These tough perennials feature attractive foliage and tall, slender flower spikes and are a beautiful choice for woodland gardens, cottage-style borders and spots with partial shade. Choose from Actaea racemosa, Actaea ‘White Pearl’ or Actaea ‘Pink Spike’ with each variety adding its own character to the garden. Their fine flowers are attractive to pollinating insects and also rise above the foliage.
Plant your Actaea bare roots in partial shade with fertile, moisture-retentive but well-drained soil. Allow plenty of room for plants to establish and keep them watered during prolonged dry spells.
Hardy, elegant and reliable, Actaea plants are an excellent choice for bringing lasting interest, height and late-season colour to garden borders.
Light Required Partial to full shade.
Watering Keep the soil consistently moist during the first growing season. Once established, water when the top inch of soil is dry. Avoid overwatering.
