China Aster Sowing Instructions
Planting Depth:1/8” Row Spacing:12”-18” Plant Spacing:10”-12” Days to Germination:10-14 days Germination Temperature:65°-75°F
Callistephus chinensis. Asters should be started
indoors 6 to 8 weeks before transplanting out
after all danger of frost has passed. Sow seeds on
top of soil mix, leaving the seeds uncovered but
pressed firmly onto the soil surface, as light aids
germination. Provide even moisture, strong light
and lukewarm water. Use individual peat pots or
seed starting cells to avoid root disturbance. Prepare
a garden bed in full to partial sunlight with rich,
well-draining soil. Harden off the seedlings by
gradually acclimating them outside over 1 to 2
weeks before transplanting 10" to 12" apart.
To encourage branching, pinch back the young
plants. Keep area mulched to conserve moisture.
Plant Asters in a different spot each year, and
water only at ground level early in the day. For
best vase life, cut them once they start to open.
Summer flowering. Height: 24".
