'Fanal' is an arendsii hybrid type, producing red flowers on stem 20-24 inches tall above dark bronze foliage. The foliage is mahogany red in spring, turning dark green by summer.  Mulch to hold moisture. Best in part shade. Hardy to Zone 3.

Most information given out about Astilbes indicates that they can grow in full sun to full shade. However, they need lots of moisture, and when they get dry, their tops quickly turn crispy, sacrificing the tops to save the roots. For that reason, we recommend a shady location. A bit of morning sun will result in better blooming. And a mulch will help hold in the moisture. Just don't let them dry out.
