Aster Azureus - Sky Blue. This Aster is an herbaceous upright perennial with dense basil foliage. The long wiry stems branch out, each one holding one daisy-like flower of dazzling blue hue surrounding a yellow center. The cute happy looking flowers can sometimes range from a brilliant light blue to a slight purple hue, plant en masse for greater effects. It is a low maintenance plant that is easy to grow, not needy or demanding. When placing it in your garden, pick a place where it can get full sunlight and sheltered. This plant is self seeding and will spread if not deadheaded. It is advised to divide the plants every 3 years to promote adequate air flow and prevent disease.

I urge anyone buying seed to do their homework on germination, I have not raised and cannot raise many of these plants as I am sub-tropics here in St Augustine, Florida. All seed are NOT alike! There are so many different factors in germination and not doing a search is throwing your money away. I want everyone to be successful when growing your flowers from seed it is the most rewarding experience in Gardening and you can do it, if you give the seed what it needs to grow. I always check 3 sites of info to choose how I will go about it. It is not hard to do, if you do it right!
SEED GERMINATION TIP!!!!!!!
ONLY GERMINATE A SMALL PORTION AT A TIME.
DON'T PUT ALL YOUR MONKEYS IN A BARREL.
Good Luck and Happy Planting!!!!
