'Pink Crush' New England Aster
PPAF
Bringing refinement to fall blooming Asters, 'Pink Crush' produces a large, very round mound with densely packed flowers. Rose pink flowers are produced above dark green foliage in early fall to midfall. A perfect finale to the growing season! Asters are native to North America and are generally very easy to grow.
- » AKA Symphyotrichum novae-angliae 'Pink Crush'
- » Vibrant rounded pink flowers
- » Mounding green foliage
- » Good resistance to powdery mildew
Asters perform best in rich, evenly moist soil and full sun. Give them lots of room to grow; good air circulation will help to prevent powdery mildew. Though this cultivar has a bushy, compact habit, it may still require staking. To promote dense growth that is less likely to flop, pinch plants back from late spring until July 4th. Plants should be divided every couple of years in the spring to maintain their health and vigor.
