Many thanks! I'm planning my new garden from scratch. I'm so happy to have found you today! I'm looking forward to browsing and learning from your videos. Your narrative is so lovely and easy to follow. Thank you! Liza
we have clay soil that alternates between dry and boggy, and our asters come back and expand with a vengence, where other plants struggle to survive and return the next year. They are beautiful and easy.
What a great discussion of these asters. We don’t see them for sale where I live. The native plant groups carry a few and the box stores will have ‘Purple Dome’ or another similar cultivar. I have a white cultivar called ‘Puff White’ that has spread quite a bit. It’s a shorter variety, but I haven’t seen it bloom very often as either the deer or rabbits get it first. I have a half dozen other types. I use metal plant labels to mark my perennials. All of them use the name Aster. It is such a pain in the neck when the botanical names are changed. Sometimes I’ll correct all the labels, but it’s hard to keep up with!
Wonderful video about Aster's. I have been searching for different types to create a Aster Garden in my zone 4 in Wisconsin, USA. It was really helpful adding zone and height of plants. I will be searching for all these Aster's in my area. Thanks!
We’ve stopped mowing our field and have had many wild asters come up. They’re also in the surrounding wood’s edge. Unfortunately the more cultivated asters I plant in the gardens end up being eaten…so I’ll just enjoy what nature provides, even though I love them so!
All asters - we are going to continue with that name - are welcome late season pollinator attractors.. I don’t see the pink varieties much - it seems to be all purple , lavender and some white. I’m trying varieties of different sizes this year.,
Hi, I like that you say the size not only in inches but also in santimeters 👍👍, is much easier for calculating, also I think will be very nice and good information if you know and say about are the flowers are toxic to pets, for example I know about daylilies are and ranunculus also for humans, we have to use gloves , it will be very good information as I said 😀👍😁
You can get the native wild types as plugs or seed at Prairie Moons Nursery. They have 19 species of Symphyotrichum, and several more of related Eurybia amd Boltonia. I bought many seeds from them and al grew nicely, especially when winter sown in jugs.
I have wild Symphiotrichum lanceolatum popping up all over my yard, and I mostly let it. It's the last food for the birds in the fall. It makes whole fallow fields white in October here in Serbia, and is widespread all over Europe.
The 'Leaflet' variety has the look of a Gaura with an Aster flower.....and my creation as mentioned above has a misnomer because its neither Aster nor Gaura....but a Symphyotrichum oenotheracea....😅 🙄
@@rosyhardy18 Ah, OK. I haven't known your channel long so I may have missed that. I find it easier to understand the etymology of words - trich means 'hair', so I think "trich-um" and that often tells me something about the structure of the plant too.

Thank you so much for this. I have just discovered M. Daisies and what a a beautiful late summer for me and the bees!

Thank you for this video. I discovered beautiful asters I did not know … great
Fall is such a great time in the garden, when the asters are in bloom. I love them so much. As the bees and butterflies do too.

Unfamiliar with many of these,Rosie. Thks.for these introductions to us. You always make learning very interesting. 🌈
Love michaelmas daisie. Bought a Frikartii Monch this autumn and cant wait til it grows up
Michaelmas Daisies are great. I have so many in my garden and the bees 🐝 love them.
Thank you very much ❤ this was really helpful
My favourite is Mőnch and also Andenken an Alma Potsche. Both great garden plants. Mőnch blooms from early August to first frost

I made some cuttings from my "Andenken an Alma Pötschke" and i hope they comes through the wintertime

I’m going to have to find some of these here in the USA.

@@arnorrian1 I live not far from them, thank you, I know they won’t let you drive right up, so I’m going to have to order. Again thank you 😊
Thank you for this informative video. Is it possible to grow these plants in containers?
As long as the containers are large enough yes.
❤

What is the growing condition for S. cordifolia?
Common name of the blue wood aster. This will take part shade and soil with organic matter that is not too wet.
The 'Leaflet' variety has the look of a Gaura with an Aster flower.....and my creation as mentioned above has a misnomer because its neither Aster nor Gaura....but a Symphyotrichum oenotheracea....😅 🙄
The belgii get mildew. The angliae are best as they do not.
@@marilynsmith8054 it depends on the growing conditions. Here at the nursery both get mildew. This is because they get some stress growing in pots.
The name is pronounced 'cum' at the end, e.g. sim-fee-oh-TRY-cum.
As I have explained previously I pronounce so that I can spell the names correctly.
@@rosyhardy18lol....so there😂

@@mapndo2337 I assumed she just didn't know, I wasn't being snarky.
@ we have our ways of working out how the names refer to parts of the plant.
