The annual Arlekinо Salmon Aster is a hardy and resilient plant suitable for cultivation in various climatic conditions. This variety is distinguished by its high resistance to diseases, which simplifies care and allows for successful use in creating flower gardens and flower beds. The bushes have a pyramidal shape and reach a height of 65-70 cm, making them an eye-catching element of garden design.
The aster leaves are dark green, and about 20 flower stalks form on one plant, ensuring abundant and long-lasting blooming. The inflorescences are double-flowered, flat-round in shape, 5-6 cm in diameter, colored in a bright salmon hue with a yellow center, which gives the flowers expressiveness and decorative appeal. Due to the large number of flowers from one bush, one can obtain an abundant bouquet or cut flowers successively throughout the blooming period.
Growing the Arlekinо Salmon Aster is possible both through seedlings and without seedlings. Seeds are sown in March-April, and pricking out is carried out when 2-3 true leaves appear with an interval of 5x5 cm. Seedlings are planted in the open ground in mid-May. With the non-seedling method, seeds can be sown early in spring or in winter directly to their permanent location. The plant responds well to fertilization, which promotes more lush and long-lasting blooming.
