Description

 

Vision Inferno is a fabulous Astilbe variety that produces dense spikes of flowers in a pretty shade of pink. It will look sensational planted in patio containers or borders and provide magnificient cut flowers too. When the fluffy plumes of ‘Inferno’ start winding down instead of the usual browning, they fade from cotton candy pink to sour apple-green. This is attractive both while they fade and for the rest of the season.
