Actaea 'Queen of Sheba'
Actaea 'Queen of Sheba' is a dramatic and elegant perennial, prized for its deeply divided, dark bronze-purple foliage and tall, slender flower spikes. From late summer into autumn, fragrant white blooms softly flushed with pink rise above the foliage, adding height, movement and a refined presence to shaded areas of the garden.
Perfect for woodland-style planting schemes and partially shaded borders, this striking variety thrives in moist, humus-rich soil where it provides valuable late-season interest. Its architectural form and rich foliage colour make it an excellent companion to ferns, hostas and other shade-loving perennials, while the flowers are highly attractive to bees and other pollinators.
