This is not a recognized cultivar. I can't remember where I bought it, maybe the nursery in Brewster that closed.

This looks quite like the other ghost fern to me, with just a bit more red perhaps in the stem area.

These were purple and white, but have morphed into purple and yel

I call this one Rainy Pass because I saved it from a ditching job up there.

Front. One of my favorites. The male flowers are a little showier, but the female seeds are nice later.

This astilbe hasn't been very impressive. It has wimpy flowers with meh color. I don't actually have any astilbes that rock my boat. Maybe the alkaline soil?

Front Bank
Mine are much paler than other photos show - a soft pink. I did buy this as Persicaria amplexicaulis 'Firetail', however. Persicaria has since changed to Bistorta, but the cultivar should be the same. Not sure why mine is so pale, as it is at Deb's house. Could be a mismarked 'Pink Elephant' or 'Rosea'.

2019: I had to thin these out in the front garden so the sprinkler could get past them. I moved a bunch to the front bank next to the Bishop's Weed.
