Visions in Red False Goat's Beard

Astilbe chinensis 'Vision in Red' is a compact, clump-forming perennial known for its striking purple-red flower plumes and bronze-green foliage. Blooming in mid-summer, this cultivar offers better sun and drought tolerance than many other astilbes, though it thrives best in consistently moist, humus-rich soil. Its upright growth habit and dark stems make it a standout in woodland gardens, shady borders, or containers. It is deer and rabbit resistant while attracting bees and butterflies.
