Tall and spectacular, award-winning Queen of the Prairie ‘Venusta’ (Filipendula Rubra) is a splendid herbaceous perennial with large, elegant sprays of small deep pink flowers on leafy stems well above the foliage from early to late summer. Pleasantly fragrant, the graceful blossoms mature to pale pink over time and are nicely complemented by deeply cut, bright green leaves that are equally fragrant. Tough and long-lasting, this U.S. native perennial is valued for both its leaves and its flowers.
