Aster n.b. 'Schöne Von Dietlikon'

Aster novi-belgii 'Schone von Dietlikon' flowers violet-blue with a yellow heart.

Does have a somewhat wild growth and is therefore better to put between other plants that give some support.

To keep the plant compact, you can also prune it to the ground at the end of June, when it will branch nicely and be firmer. Will therefore remain lower than normal.

It covers the soil well so that weeds do not grow underneath.

It is best to split them every 2/3 years and plant them in a nutrient-rich, well-drained soil, in a sunny spot.

Tolerates a little shade to some extent.

The leaves remain on the plant during mild winters, but are not really beautiful to call it evergreen.

The novi-belgii species are usually susceptible to mildew.

Price is for 4 pieces.
