Aster - Hi-No-Maru Mix (2.6" pot)
Annual. A dramatic, late-season flourish for your ornamental bed. When summer blooms begin to fade, these gorgeous asters will be more than willing to pick up the slack. Each button-like blossom is a bicolour mix of purple, red or white. Bees and butterflies adore them, and their profuse flowering habit will provide an abundance of colour deep into the fall. Although they do not require deadheading, snip off a few stems for an excellent, long-lasting cut flower. They grow well in average soil, but adding compost and monthly feeding will produce larger blooms.
Location: Mid-border, Mixed container, Cut flower garden
Bloom Period: August to October
Height: 20”
Plant Spacing: 6-8”
