Aster novae-angliae 'Grape Crush'

Asters appreciate rich, evenly moist soil and lots of sun. They grow to be full and quite large so give them lots of room for air circulation as powdery mildew can be a problem. This cultivar is smaller than most, but still consider pinching plants back from late spring until July 4th to keep them compact for the fall bloom period. Divide aster every couple of years in the spring to maintain healthy plants.

I can't wait to see the flowers when they bloom. I was excited to find this Aster 'Grape Crush'. I think it will be the perfect size and shape for my flower circle.
