Notes

'Vision Inferno' Chinese astilbe (Astilbe chinensis 'Vision Inferno') is a perennial for borders, containers, and ground cover. It is hardy to USDA zone 3, or down to -40°F (-40°C). This plant likes full sun to full shade and average to moist, loamy soil. It blooms from early to late summer and draws butterflies and bees. Deer and rabbits rarely make it their first choice. It also tolerates drought and needs little care.
