Thank you, Elaine! The name you gave it looks the same when I googled it and now I have solved two mysteries because it comes in white and other colors also and I have some white flower photos that I was searching for a name for on my big picture blog. This flower I nicknamed Breathtaking Stars is really called
Astilbes.
Once again, I have no idea what flower this is. . . but I like the name I made up for it! Ü I discovered this beauty near our sprinkler park at Esther Short Park. . . IF anyone knows what it is called, please let me know. Thank you!

I found it similar to several different species but will not try to guess. I imagine the Butterflies and Hummingbirds love it. It reminds me of the Butterfly Bush.

I wrote a comment but could not get it to publish so I'll try again.

Really sorry to hear about your friend's death. But your blog is lovely and has wonderful pictures. Just wanted to let you know.
I had to put it up side by side with one I saw this week, but they are not the same, just similar. I don't know it's name either.
When the kids were little, they did a Junior Ranger activity where they had to sketch and name a wildflower. Chris named his "George."
Gorgeous - and breathtaking indeed!
An appropriate flower for around the 4th :-)
What a lovely color . . . I miss the astilbes that we left at our old house!
I haven't a clue, but it was well named!
A perfect name.
Beautiful astilbe! Mine are not flowering yet...but they will soon. ;-)
Such a pretty flower. The close up shots are great as usual.
