Tall "Moonshine" duchess aster is unique variety mix that consists of two exceptional cultivars that grow 50 - 60 cm tall. Its inflorescences are tricolour - differently coloured rings create incredible colour compositions. The centre is yellow, the outer ring snow-white, while the middle ring of one variety is pink and the other - purple. This colouring allows you to attract guests to the selected garden spots. Multicolour pom-pom shaped asters introduce joy to even subdued borders.

"Moonshine" asters are dependable border and pot plants that are have been valued as cut flowers for a long time. They look great on lawn and border edges and may magnificently adorn balcony and terrace arrangements. The long and abundant blooming makes them an ideal alternative to the short-lived summer annuals.

Aster seeds are usually sown under covers in March and April in order to prepare seedlings. You may also expect similarly good results from direct sow in April. These plants require a fertile, permeable, sufficiently moist soil with a neutral reaction. Asters of this variety bloom from July to autumn. They prefer full exposure to sunlight, while the recommended distance between the plants is 20 x 40 cm.
