Discover how to grow asters from seed in your garden with our step-by-step guide, from sowing the seeds to harvesting the blooms!
Aster seeds
Aster seeds range from light to dark brown and have a pointed end.
Starting Asters indoors
Asters aren't to picky, but make sure to have well draining soil to avoid root rot. Place 1 to 2 seeds in each container and water with a fine mist.
Transplanting Aster Seedlings
After the last frost has passed and the seedlings have been hardened for transplant, prepare an area with good drainage and ample sunlight for the Asters.
Aster Flower Care
Asters can get Aster yellow virus from insects so row covers are a good investment, and make sure to not over water. My China Asters can grow to nearly 2 feet tall with proper care.
