Goats Beard Plant: Bold, but Understated
When you’re looking for an understated perennial with a quiet confidence, Aruncus dioicus, or goats beard, is a perfect fit. Its easy, carefree growth habit and feathery plumes that float above a dense clump of foliage is an attractive way to fill out a garden without overshadowing other perennials. Goats beard is at home in naturalized areas or shady borders where gentle beauty is preferred over bold blooms and bright colors.
Goats Beard Plant: Built to Last
If you’re tired of planting perennials that just never seem to live up to their promise of year after year of reliable beauty, goats beard might just be the answer. Aruncus dioicus is one of those rare plants that get better with age. Each season, the clump expands and fills in more completely, creating a soft, billowy effect. Plus, the foliage itself has an attractive texture that keeps it looking good long after the blooms have faded, unlike many other shade perennials.
Goats Beard Plant: Effortless Elegance
Architectural strength and soft, delicate beauty are qualities not often found in the same plant. Aruncus dioicus, however, manages to provide both, making it a favorite of garden designers and do-it-yourselfers alike. Goats beard is a perfect anchor for woodland gardens, native plantings and any setting where you want to bring in a sense of peace and tranquility. If you’re looking for a long-lived perennial that is both classic and timeless, goats beard is a great place to start.
