The name Aster derived from word Astron and relates to star in Greek, It’s a winter variety in the family of ‘Asteraceae’ and recognizes as a symbol of patience and love for establishment of tranquility to garden, environment and self


Grow: Aster apparently an easy grower variety but prefers cool and moist condition, dislike over watering. Most suitable at landscape beds, prepared soil, sun light and ensure fertility and care includes staking if required. A popular plant resource from nursery seedlings, which may rises up to 1 – 4 ft. height corresponding to variety. The flowers are 6-12 inches tall and star like blooms comes out with rainbow of colors, often found in bouquets. I personally do not include this plant at my garden for quite some times, once a favorite species because of shifted priority and availability of more alternatives.

Scientific Classification: Kingdom – Plantae; Unrank – Angiosperms, Eudicots, Asterids; Order – Asterales; Family – Asteraceae; Tribe – Astereae; Genus –Aster (Source – Wikipedia)... for correlation
