Aster, Astro Nano Merveille Mix, Dwarf

Aster, Nano Merveille Mix. Annual plant, dwarf variety that grows 10-12" tall. Produces lots of large multicolored flowers. Ideal for borders and rocky gardens.   Asters prefer areas with cool, moist summers and cool nights in sites with full to partial sun. In warmer climates, asters do not like the hot midday sun. Soil should be moist but well-drained and loamy. Wet clay soil will lead to root rot, and dry sandy soil will lead to plant wilt.  Since asters prefer moist soil, it is important that they receive enough water/precipitation to keep them growing during hot and/or dry stretches. Hot weather can cause plants to be affected, which is why it is important in warmer climates to plant them in an area where they receive some shade during the midday sun.  Sow from March to June.  Blooming from June to October
