  • China Aster (Callistephus chinensis)
    Plant in full sun.
    I don’t pinch China Aster, the naturally branch on long slender stems.
    It’s been sunny, very windy and particularly dry this season.
    To help plants cope, I have planted plugs a little deeper to allow the soil to give extra support until they hit the first layer of support wire mesh (stock fencing).
    The deeper planting will also help keep the soil around the roots cooler and less likely to dry out between watering.
    China asters can suffer from botrytis, to protect plants a good spacing (20-25cm apart or 9”)
    will allow airflow between the plants, don’t overwater.
    Ideally don’t plant year on year in exactly the same position, move plants around the garden to protect from Fusarium wilt. More information is on our original Grow-A-Long video.

      You have to be selective with the ones you grow, not all are as amazing but the varieties I have found are available from the January seed shop on my website xxx

    I wonder if you could film in landscape. It makes for much better viewing

      Thank you so much for taking the time to comment. The videos are for Instagram which has to be portrait, I’d love to re-record everything in landscape but I wanted to keep them free and I’d need help for that then I’d have to charge a subscription.
