Aster (Aster Tongolensis Wartburg Star) - Aster Wartbur Star flower seed often produces flowers the first year after sowing. The 2 1/4 inch blooms come in varying shades of light violet-blue, with tufted gold centers. They bloom mid-summer to late fall. This is an extraordinary Aster, easy to grow, long-lived, very showy, and it makes great cut flowers! Aster Tongolensis is good for rock gardens, landscaping, edging and is suitable for containers. The dark green foliage forms dense, tufted mats in full to partial shade, and moist but well-drained soil. Sow Aster Wartburg Star seeds indoors in early spring using starter mix. Press the flower seed into soil and barely cover. Keep the flower seed damp and transplant plants into the garden 20 inches apart. For areas with long growing season, the Aster seeds can be directly started outside after frost danger has passed.
