Actaea dahurica, commonly known as Dahurian Bugbane, is a striking perennial ideal for those seeking an elegant presence in shaded garden spaces. Thriving in average, medium moisture soils with partial to full shade, this plant truly shines in humus-rich, moisture-retentive environments. The ferny, deeply-cut, deep green leaves, arranged in a ternate pattern, form a lush clump that reaches 3-4 feet in height. As summer transitions to autumn, flower stems soar above the foliage to 5-6 feet, showcasing terminal, bottlebrush-like racemes of fragrant, creamy white flowers. These performers add architectural height and a delicate fragrance, perfect for woodland and cottage gardens or shaded borders. Originally known as Cimicifuga dahurica, this plant is synonymous with texture, providing a lush backdrop against which its spires flourish. Not only is it a visual delight, but its insect-repellent properties, referenced in its common name "bugbane," make it a practical choice. For maximum impact, group plantings are recommended. Experience nature's brilliance with the timeless beauty of Dahurian Bugbane.
