Sowing Instructions
 
Sow seeds indoors from February to April in trays or pots filled with fine compost. Lightly cover with compost and keep soil moist at a temperature of 18-21°C. Germination typically occurs within 7-14 days.
 
Once seedlings are large enough to handle, transplant them into individual pots and harden them off before planting outdoors after the last frost. Space plants 25-30 cm apart in a sunny, sheltered location.
 
For direct outdoor sowing, wait until late spring, scatter seeds in well-prepared soil, lightly rake over, and water gently. Thin seedlings as required.
 
Aster China Ostrich Feather adds graceful, feathered blooms and vibrant colours to any garden, ensuring a spectacular floral display throughout summer and autumn.
