Aster Complements



Asters are the ideal fall-blooming perennial to complement garden mums.

  • Yoder garden aster

    cuttings are specifically grown for use as container plants.
  • Grower cultural practices are similar to those for garden mums. They can also be produced as greenhouse pot plants using photoperiod control.
  • The aster's delicate daisy flowers come in white and various shades of blue (a color not often seen in garden plants, including mums), lavender, pink and raspberry.
  • For gardeners, asters are hardy in Zones 4 to 9 and make a beautiful addition to perennial gardens around the home.
  • When mature, asters can range from 2 to 4 feet in height, making them desirable for planting between mums and tall growing shrubs.
  • Garden asters also do well alone as accent plants in flower gardens, barrels, urns and other large containers.
