Tell Me More...
As hardwearing and beautiful as the woven fabric once reserved for ornamental garments, Aster novi-belgii 'Crimson Brocade' is an autumnal centrepiece in any garden. Asters hide away in borders, letting others take centre stage but only until the last days of summer, when they burst into a frenzy of activity. To the delight of your local pollinators, each plant become smothered with an abundance of nectar-rich blooms. Rabbits tend to stay away. Florists will busy creating fantastic floral displays with armfuls of stems, from late summer well into the autumn. Also known as Michaelmas Daisies because they flower around the time of the saint's day, at end of September. Reaching a height of around 1.2m, and spreading to 40-60cm, Aster novi-belgii 'Crimson Brocade' is not overly fussy on soil conditions and is happy in sun or part shade. A fully hardy perennial with an RHS rating of H7, she will not require any winter protection but will die back during the coldest weather, ready to sprout again in the spring.
