Astilbe chinensis 'Vision Inferno' PBR – candy-pink plumes and strong growth

Astilbe chinensis 'Vision Inferno' PBR is a striking and robust perennial with a vigorous, upright growth habit. This special variety forms heavy, densely filled candy-pink flower plumes that provide a spectacular color accent during flowering. After the flowering period, the plumes gradually turn green, ensuring the plant retains its decorative appearance afterwards. Furthermore, 'Vision Inferno' PBR is more resistant to sun and drought than many other Astilbe varieties.

During flowering, the sturdy, full flower spikes appear clearly above the foliage. The intense candy pink flowers give the plant a fresh and lively appearance. The dense structure of the plumes creates a powerful effect, especially when multiple plants are planted together.

From candy pink to decorative green

A distinctive feature of Astilbe 'Vision Inferno' PBR is the color change of the flower spikes. After the exuberant pink bloom, the plumes take on increasingly green hues. This keeps the plant interesting for longer and creates a beautiful transition from the flowering period to the later gardening season.

'Vision Inferno' PBR also has strong, upright growth and is relatively tolerant of sunny and drier conditions. This makes the plant versatile. However, a nutritious, humus-rich, and moisture-retentive soil remains ideal. In a sunnier location, sufficient soil moisture is important, especially during prolonged dry periods.

Use this Astilbe as an eye-catcher in the border or plant several specimens together for an impressive pink expanse of color. Combinations with white, red, or purple Astilbes are also particularly attractive.

With its heavy candy-pink plumes, green reblooming, vigorous growth habit, and improved sun and drought tolerance, Astilbe chinensis 'Vision Inferno' PBR is a distinctive and versatile garden plant.
