So colorful they almost glow, these pinkish-red blooms dazzle in the garden or vase! Beginning in August and continuing through October in most regions, this New York Aster is a solid mat of color on petite, neat 12 to 15-inch plants.
Alert is the best choice for edging or small-space gardening, with a compact habit and very heavy bloom. Entirely disease-free, Alert returns year after year with more magnificent color!
Superb combined with Chrysanthemums, this New York Aster is also perfect for cutting. Plant in sun in fertile, reasonably moist garden soil. Zones 4-8.
