Planting And Care

 

  • If you receive less than 1 inch of rain a week, remember to water your plants regularly during the summer
  • However, many asters are moisture-sensitive; if your plants have too much moisture or too little moisture, they will often lose their lower foliage or not flower well
  • Keep an eye out for any stressed plants and try a different watering method if your plants are losing flowers
  • Cut asters back in winter after the foliage has died
  • Divide every 2 to 3 years in the spring to maintain your plant s vigor and flower quality
