Aster

This charming aster comes from China. The flower is an annual bushy plant with straight stems. Asters are distinguished by stem height: low, medium, tall. The inflorescences are a kaleidoscope of colors and shapes: semi-double, double, chrysanthemum-shaped, rose-shaped, anemone-shaped, peony-shaped, needle-shaped, etc.

For active growth, the flower needs soil fertilized with humus and added lime. It is most favorable to plant asters in places with access to the sun and protection from winds. With proper and painstaking care of asters, flowering will last from about mid-summer to almost late autumn.

Aster propagation occurs by seeds, which are sown in rows in early spring, not too densely. In order for the inflorescences to be especially large, you can fertilize several times by spraying from a spray bottle. Thinning plants and removing weeds leads to long-lasting and pleasing flowering.
