Filipendula palmata ‘Nana’ – 2026

Description

Filipendula palmata ‘Nana’ is a captivating perennial that adds both texture and colour to moist borders and woodland edges. This compact cultivar produces airy, cotton-candy pink plumes of tiny, fragrant flowers atop a low mound of fern-like, deeply lobed foliage. Blooming from mid to late summer, it creates a soft, frothy effect that attracts pollinators such as bees and butterflies.

Preferring full sun to partial shade and moist, well-drained soil, ‘Nana’ is particularly useful in damp areas, including rain gardens, near ponds, or as a groundcover in shaded spots. Its compact size makes it suitable for smaller gardens or containers. Regular removal of spent flowers encourages prolonged blooming, while leaving some seed heads provides winter interest and food for birds. With its delicate flowers and ecological benefits, ‘Nana’ is a valuable addition to any garden.
