Aster Dumosus Blue (Autumn Asters) x 3

Aster Dumosus Blue (Autumn Asters) is a set of three perennials that brighten the garden with rich blue, star-like flowers in autumn. A welcoming choice for sunny beds and edges, especially where you’d like a neat carpet of colour.

Location

Best planted outdoors in a sunny spot, where the blue flowers can add gentle colour in autumn.

Contents

Supplied as a set of three dormant perennial rootstocks, without soil.

Growth habit and size

Forms a low, compact plant, reaching around 20–30 cm in height and spreading to about 20–30 cm. It’s a good option when you want ground cover with seasonal flowering.

Plant care

Grows in any soil and is best in a sunny position. For planting, a well-drained, fertile soil helps it settle in comfortably.

Pruning and maintenance

Remove faded flowers to keep the plant tidy, and trim back after flowering if you’d like to maintain a neat shape. Dividing every few years helps keep the clump strong.

Winter hardiness

Hardy down to –20°C.
