Aster 'Grape Crush'

Aster 'Grape Crush' is a standout in late-season gardens, providing a bold splash of deep purple colour when many summer plants are beginning to fade. Its dense, rounded clusters of flowers sit atop strong stems, making it a favourite for attracting pollinators such as bees and butterflies. The dark green foliage contrasts beautifully with the vibrant blooms, adding interest and texture to garden borders and mixed plantings. This perennial is versatile, fitting well into wildlife gardens, borders, or as a focal point in a cottage garden setting.

Reaching a height of 60-90 cm with a similar spread, Aster 'Grape Crush' thrives in full sun to partial shade and prefers moist, well-drained soil. It requires minimal maintenance, needing only moderate watering and the occasional removal of spent blooms to encourage further flowering. With a blooming period that stretches from late summer through autumn, it ensures that your garden remains vibrant as the season winds down. This plant is an excellent choice for those seeking reliable, long-lasting colour in the garden during the cooler months.
