This young plant doesn't thrive in my garden, located in the North of Brittany... the foliage is beautiful but it doesn't produce any flowers.

Description
The Filipendula 'Red Umbrellas' is a new hybrid variety of Filipendula that is quite impressive: this beautifully bushy perennial has large palmate leaves that are nicely cut and adorned with dark purple veins that highlight and accentuate their design. Its delicate flowering in June, with a soft pink colour, adds an exquisite touch. All of this creates a beautiful combination of lushness and lightness, which is stunning in a woodland setting. This variety is shorter than most meadowsweets and is also well-suited for small gardens. It will thrive in wild, romantic, or Japanese gardens.
The 'Red Umbrellas' Filipendula is a recently cultivated hybrid obtained in Japan. It is the result of cross-breeding between Filipendula multijuga, which is native to Japan, and F. palmata, originally from Japan and Siberia, which has passed on its deeply cut large leaves to 'Red Umbrellas'. All of these plants belong to the rosaceae family. It is a rhizomatous perennial plant that thrives in woodland areas and grows in moist to wet soils. With its leafy stems, this Filipendula has a compact, bushy, and upright habit. It reaches a height of about 70 cm (28in) with a spread of 60 cm (24in).
The flowering occurs in early summer, in June-July, in the form of feathery corymbs with a slightly pendant habit. The rose-tinted flower buds open into 5-petaled flowers, 1.5cm (1in) wide, in a delicate mauve-pink color. Its deciduous foliage consists of large palmate leaves, divided into 5 strongly dentate lobes. The dark green, glossy lamina is adorned with purple-violaceous veins.
In the garden, the 'Red Umbrellas' Filipendula thrives in dappled sunlight, under the protective cover of deciduous trees or bushes, in a humid woodland ambiance. It also enjoys being near a pond or wetland, where it can tolerate more sun. Airy, ethereal, almost feathery, it brings a sense of lightness to your borders. It can be easily paired with many other perennials, such as Blackfield Persicaria Knotweed, Purple Joe-Pye Weed, and Chinese Loosestrife. In a woodland setting, it can also be combined with other foliage-rich perennials, such as Bear's Breeches, Sun Power Hosta, or even Palmate Rhubarb.

Planting and care
Plant this 'Red Umbrellas' meadowsweet preferably in partial shade. It is a low-maintenance plant, hardy down to -15°C (5°F), which will thrive in a average soil, even heavy, as long as it remains moist. But it is in a rich and humus-bearing soil that it will truly shine. Water regularly during the first growing season, especially if the summer is dry, to help your meadowsweet establish itself.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).
The flowering period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, the United Kingdom, Ireland, the Netherlands, etc.)
It will vary according to where you live:- In zones 9 to 10 (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), flowering will occur about 2 to 4 weeks earlier.
- In zones 6 to 7 (Germany, Poland, Slovenia, and lower mountainous regions), flowering will be delayed by 2 to 3 weeks.
- In zone 5 (Central Europe, Scandinavia), blooming will be delayed by 3 to 5 weeks.
In temperate climates, pruning of spring-flowering shrubs (forsythia, spireas, etc.) should be done just after flowering.
Pruning of summer-flowering shrubs (Indian Lilac, Perovskia, etc.) can be done in winter or spring.
In cold regions as well as with frost-sensitive plants, avoid pruning too early when severe frosts may still occur.
The planting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, United Kingdom, Ireland, Netherlands).
It will vary according to where you live:
- In Mediterranean zones (Marseille, Madrid, Milan, etc.), autumn and winter are the best planting periods.
- In continental zones (Strasbourg, Munich, Vienna, etc.), delay planting by 2 to 3 weeks in spring and bring it forward by 2 to 4 weeks in autumn.
- In mountainous regions (the Alps, Pyrenees, Carpathians, etc.), it is best to plant in late spring (May-June) or late summer (August-September).
The harvesting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions in USDA zone 8 (France, England, Ireland, the Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...) fruit and vegetable harvests are likely to be delayed by 3-4 weeks.
In warmer areas (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), harvesting will probably take place earlier, depending on weather conditions.
The sowing periods indicated on our website apply to countries and regions within USDA Zone 8 (France, UK, Ireland, Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...), delay any outdoor sowing by 3-4 weeks, or sow under glass.
In warmer climes (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), bring outdoor sowing forward by a few weeks.
