How to Grow Asters

A gardening guide outlines sowing asters with shallow roots. Use drainage layers, light loamy soil with sand, and a 4 inch soil depth. Sow evenly, cover lightly, and use a glass cover to speed germination, then provide air as plants grow. Choose Californian Giants seeds for best value and vigor.

Cultivation Tips for Asters and Gloriosa Superba Climbers

The article details growing asters with long strong stems, recommending rich old manure, lime application, and early sowing. It advises planting seedlings 4 to 6 inches apart on dull days, firming roots, and watering promptly. It also promotes Gloriosa Superba climbing lilies for sunny spots, describing their bright orange yellow blooms, reflexed petals, and tuberous roots planted flat with shallow soil.
