Thanks to the individuals (Anne Flore for order preparation and Marina from the shipping service), the 3 specific research area plants received are in dormancy. Planted near the "Claude Brasseur" & "Pierre Perret" roses, I am now patiently awaiting the spring reawakening (or not)...

Planting and care

Plant in well-drained soil, covering the top of the root ball by 3cm (1in). Not very demanding, they can thrive in any type of soil. However, stagnant moisture in winter can be fatal to them. Asters are susceptible to mildew. Mulch all asters every year in November after cutting them back. You can divide them in late autumn or early spring if they become too large.
