Astilbe 'Vision in Red' is a compact, clump-forming perennial with dense plumes of reddish-purple flowers that bloom in mid to late summer. The blossoms rise above deep bronze-green foliage, which remains attractive throughout the season. This variety is more heat- and drought-tolerant than many other astilbes, making it a reliable choice for gardens with varying moisture levels. Thriving in part to full shade, it prefers organically rich, moist, well-drained soil. Resistant to deer and rabbits, it is well-suited for woodland gardens, borders, and containers. Suitable for USDA zones 4-9, it provides long-lasting seasonal color and texture in shaded landscapes.

Planting: Best planted in spring or fall, avoiding the hottest part of summer. Set bare-root divisions 2 to 3 inches deep, ensuring the crown is just below the soil surface.
Location: Prefers partial shade, though it can tolerate full sun with ample moisture.
Soil: Requires rich, moist, well-drained soil with a slightly acidic pH around 6.0.
Watering: Keep soil consistently moist; drought can cause foliage to brown.
Spacing: Plant 12 to 24 inches apart, depending on variety.
Fertilization: Apply organic matter or balanced fertilizer in early spring to support strong blooms.
Pruning: No deadheading needed; cut back foliage in late winter before new growth emerges.
Propagation: Divide clumps every three to four years in early spring or fall.
Pest & Disease: Generally pest-free, though Japanese beetles may feed on foliage. Avoid excessive moisture to prevent fungal issues.
