Description

Aster Pastels Mix is a soft, elegant blend of annual asters known for their large, daisy-like blooms in gentle pastel shades. Flowers appear in shades of blush pink, lavender, pale blue, creamy white, and soft rose, creating a delicate and romantic display in garden beds and cut flower arrangements.

This mix is especially valued for its excellent vase life and abundant blooms, making it a favorite for cutting gardens and floral design. The sturdy stems and layered petals provide both volume and color contrast, adding a refined touch to late-season bouquets.
