Azumi XL Blue China Aster Seed — held blue aster branching spray

Aster Seeds

China asters bloom in late summer, when many cutting gardens start to thin out. The Azumi XL series in blue, red, rose, and white grows long, sturdy stems with full double flowers, and the Bonita series comes as film-coated seed for clean sowing. Asters are day-length sensitive. Start them early under lights so plants grow tall before buds set, and support with netting. Rotate the planting site each year, since aster wilt builds up in the soil. Cut when the first few flowers on a stem open. Vase life is long.
