About the Astilbe -
Visions :
The Astilbe ‘Visions’, Astilbe chinensis, is a
colorful feathery flower with raspberry blooms and
lacy blue-green foliage. The flowers contrast
wonderfully with the glossy foliage. Astilbe
‘Visions’ blooms in mid summer and are 15” tall and
have a plant width of 12-18”. Astilbe ‘Visions’ is
more sun tolerant, but is most successfully grown in
a shady area. A moist, well-drained area is key for
this plant.
In order to keep Astilbe looking good for the
next year, do not cut it back in the winter, (the
old foliage helps protect the plant from winter
damage), but prune in early spring. Astilbe can be
used as cut flowers, in perennial borders or shade
gardens with Hosta’s and Ferns. Astilbe is
considered to be deer resistant and will attract
hummingbirds |
