Aster Frolic™
Michaelmas Daisy |
USDA Zone: 4-9 |
Plant number: 1.085.570
(='Yofrolic') Also known as Fall Asters, these are terrific favorites for autumn colour in the perennial border. Plants form bushy mounds, bearing loads of small daisy flowers. This is a compact selection with double medium rose-blue blossoms, each with a tiny yellow eye. Pinch plants before July to keep especially low in habit. Excellent in containers. Most Asters will be troubled much less with powdery mildew when grown in a moist, rich soil. USPP#19104: unlicensed propagation prohibited.
