Aster, Tower Chamois (110 days)  Callistephus chinensis  A soft, creamy pink/peach china aster with lush layers of slightly involute petals-  there’s hardly a more delicious aster in the field!  Aptly described as a “peony” aster because of all those cupped, incurved petals, and highly coveted when in bloom.  Plant this aster in succession as flowers are at their prime for just a couple short weeks.  My all-time-favorite color of aster as it can look good with just about any other flower in bouquets.  Pinch and trellis.  An annual reaching 30”.  Best spaced 9-12” apart.  SSF.  Packet- (~70 seeds, 1/4g)...

Aster, Princess Mix Callistephus chinensis (120 days)  A mix of purple, pink, fuchsia, and white quilled or flat double petaled beauties.  The Princess Mix Aster is a sophisticated addition to cut flower arrangements or the annual border.  30” plants produce voluminous quantities of flowers on strong stems.  Pinch back when small to encourage a larger number of long-stemmed flowers and provide horizontal trellising for highest production of straight stems.  SSF. Packet- (~70 seeds) ...

Aster, Moonstone (110 days) Callistephus chinensis  A dusty lavender China aster with occasional creamy centers, unusual because of its soft, muted color and color gradation.  Petals are gently incurved and slightly involute.  As with all china asters, Moonstone has an extremely long vase life, lasting anywhere from 7-21 days as a cut flower.  A good choice for evoking moody subtly in arrangements.  An annual reaching 30”.  Best spaced 9-12” apart.  SSF. Unfortunately, this seed will be unavailable for most of 2022 due to a crop failure. We intend to grow it 2022 so check back with us 12/01/22 for availability. Packet- 1/2 g (~175 seeds) ...
