Filipendula (Meadowsweet)

Filipendula, commonly known as Meadowsweet, is a charming perennial that brings soft, fluffy blooms and a natural meadow feel to early and midsummer gardens. Its flower clusters rise in billowing sprays of creamy white or warm pink above deep green foliage, creating a light, cloud like effect that looks beautiful in both formal and relaxed plantings. Many varieties also carry a gentle sweet fragrance that drifts through the garden on warm days. This plant thrives in sun or partial shade and enjoys soil that stays evenly moist, making it a wonderful choice for borders, cottage gardens, and areas near ponds or streams. Filipendula is easy to grow, dependable, and full of old fashioned charm, bringing gentle height, movement, and a soft romantic touch to any garden.
