Japanese Aster

White to soft mauve flowers in their masses. The uncommon, toothed foliage forms nice mid green mounds and are topped with flowers from midsummer until autumn. There is no fuss with this one and you can enjoy a long flowering season.
Plant Japanese Aster in borders, cottage gardens or large pots. By dead heading the plants regularly you will promote more blooms, plus the flowers last well in a vase.
Once established it won’t require a lot of water, even though it grows and flowers through the hotter times of the year. It has excellent mildew resistance. Plant in moderately fertile to humus rich, well drained soil in a sunny spot. Dig and divide every four to five years.
In the language of flowers, Aster's denote love or daintiness. The word, Aster, is Latin for Star. Asters are commonly known as Easter Daisies or Michaelmas Daisies.
