Aster Seeds

Asters are easy-to-grow plants. You can sow the aster seeds direct at the place you would like. They have a long flowering season and add colour to the garden far into autumn. Regularly removing the dead flowers ensures rich blooms. Asters prefer a sunny spot in the garden, but partial shade is no problem either. They grow medium-high, about 50-80 cm, making them suitable for any garden. Moreover, asters can also be grown in pots for the balcony or terrace. The Flower Aster belongs to the family of composites (Compositae or Asteraceae). Because of the beautiful flowering, many species have been cultivated as garden plants.

Advice from the gardener

Sow the aster flower seeds each year in a different place in the garden. Remove the dead flowers; this will prolong the flowering time.
