Astilbe chinensis 'Vision'® PBR

Astilbe chinensis 'Vision'® PBR is a strong and versatile perennial with beautiful lilac-purple flower plumes and attractive bronze-green foliage. This striking Astilbe combines rich flower color with a robust growth habit and is also more resistant to sun and temporarily drier conditions than many other Astilbe varieties. This makes 'Vision'® PBR an excellent choice for a wide range of garden plantings.

During the flowering period, full, graceful flower spikes appear above the decorative foliage. The flowers have a beautiful lilac to purple color and provide a striking yet elegant accent in the border. The bronze-green foliage forms a beautiful contrast with the flowers and gives the plant an attractive appearance both before and after flowering.

More sun and drought tolerant

An important advantage of Astilbe chinensis 'Vision'® PBR is its relatively good tolerance to sun and drought. As a chinensis type, this variety can cope better with sunnier locations and temporarily drier conditions than many traditional Astilbes. However, a humus-rich and sufficiently moisture-retentive soil remains ideal for optimal growth and abundant flowering.

Thanks to these characteristics, 'Vision'® PBR is versatile for use in borders and larger group plantings. The lilac-purple flowers combine beautifully with white and light pink perennials. The bronze-green foliage also provides an attractive contrast next to Hosta, Heuchera, and various ornamental grasses.

In a sunnier spot, it is important that the soil retains sufficient moisture, especially during prolonged warm and dry periods.

With its lilac-purple flowers, decorative bronze-green foliage, and improved tolerance to sun and drought, Astilbe chinensis 'Vision'® PBR is a strong, colorful, and reliable choice for both classic and modern garden plantings.
