Filipendula vulgaris ‘Multiplex’ or fern-leaf dropwort is an old-fashioned perennial with very pretty, fern-like basal leaves and arching stems topped with clusters of tiny, double flowers in shades of white to rose-pink. Grow in sun to part shade with even moisture and well-drained soil. Drought tolerant once established. It will reach 2-3 feet tall. Awesome in the sunny border, meadow garden, and as mass planting with vertical and textural interest. Deer resistant. Photo: Wikipedia.
