Aster 'Monch'
Lavender-blue daisies with pretty yellow centres are held on tall self-supporting stems of dark-green foliage. Grow in a sunny or partly shaded position. Asters are brilliant care-free colourful additions to the perennial garden, extending the flowering season from late summer to mid-autumn. Great cut flower.
How to grow
Prefers a position in full sun but tolerant of some shade in hotter regions. Thrives in all soil types but resents poor drainage. Water during dry periods and dead head spent blooms to encourage flowering. Cut back flower stems during winter leaving a low mound of foliage to ensure fresh spring growth.
