Beskrivning av Kina aster: Kina asters är tillgängliga från petit sorter som bildar kompakta högar på 1 fot hela vägen till långa som växer till 21/2 meter långa. Blomtiden varierar också med tidig sommar, midsommar och senommarsorter. För en kontinuerlig show måste du välja olika sorter och / eller stagger sådddatum.
Växande Kina aster: Kina asters växer bäst i full sol i rik jord. Två sjukdomsproblem har plågat dem tidigare: astergula, bärs av blötdjur och fusarium, en jordburen sjukdom. Välj sjukdomsbeständiga sorter när du köper frön eller växter. Spray för att kontrollera insekter. Planta dem inte i samma mark två år i rad. Så frö inomhus 6 till 7 veckor innan du planterar ute. De spirer i 10 till 20 dagar vid 70 grader Fahrenheit. Annars sår du dem i marken utanför efter den sista frosten. Varje sort blommar bara 3 till 4 veckor, så för en kontinuerlig show måste successiva planteringar vara två veckor ifrån varandra.
Förökning Kina aster: Av frö.
