Watering

The plant needs constant water in the summer and spring seasons. Don’t overdo it though, the above rule applies: the aster hates stagnant water so always make sure the soil is moist and not soaked before watering again.

Flowering

Water the plant even when it has not yet produced flowers. To make the Aster capable of producing a grandiose flowering you will have to know that it is important to trim it from the moment of planting until the beginning of July. This operation will lead to the formation of numerous buds. Remember to remove the flowers that gradually wither, this will allow the plant to produce new ones.

The name of the plant: why is it called that?

The name of the plant comes from the Greek in which the word aster (lit. “astro”) takes on the figurative meaning of ” star-shaped flower “. The first evidence of this denomination dates back to Linnaeus who introduced the botanical characteristics in 1735. However, the flower was already known before and was considered a symbol of inspiration for fantasies and ideas beyond the ordinary.
