Question
This is a shrub about eight ft tall and wide that I saw in Balastrand, Norway in front of a hotel. Can you help me to identify it? Many thanks. Plantwoman
Answer
plantwoman, your photographs appear to be of an Astilbe (false goat's-beard), a group of plants native to North America and Asia. These belong to the Saxifragaceae (saxifrage family). I do not know the exact species, but hopefully this gives you a good start on researching this plant. Best wishes.
