Semi-tall bright and colourful annual aster with unfilled flowers. Asters are susceptible to a type of soil fungi that causes wilt. They should therefore have a break of between 5 and 8 years before being planted on the same ground again. They are ready for picking when the flowers are fully open. Ideal for cut flower growers.
