Moonstone Aster Seeds

The Moonstone China Aster is an ephemeral silvery lilac color that is so sophisticated. We love the dusty bluish tone combined with the structured shape of these flowers, it's like a 90's prom dress.

Asters are annual plants that produce armloads of large flashy blooms from mid-Summer - frost. They make great cut flowers for bouquets with a long vase life and strong stems.

Includes 25 seeds.
