Aster Pompon Blue 25 Seeds, Blue Bloom, Cut Flower Seeds, Gift for Gardener

This Aster variety produces smaller pompon blooms that are a lovely blue shade, fading to yellow center.

Transplant (recommended) - Sow 1/8" deep into 72-cell flats or preferred seedling container, 6-8 weeks before last frost. Heat and reduced daylength initiate flowering. Establish plantings early to avoid short stems.

Direct seed - After your last frost date and when soil temperature is 65-70°F (18-21°C). Provide support. Row cover or insect netting helps prevent the spread of Aster Yellows Virus by leafhoppers. Pinching not required.
