Suggested Care: Aster ‘Little Pink Beauty’ should be planted in moist but well-drained, loamy soils, positioned in full sun or partial shade. For best growing conditions, grow in moderately fertile soils in an open position. Once the plant begins to die back, it should be cut down and covered in winter mulch. It is advised to divide the specimen every third year to maintain vigour.
Planting Instructions: Break up the soil well before planting and dig a hole twice the size of the pot. Remove plant from the pot by tapping the rim of the pot in ‘up side down’ position. However, do not pull the plant from the pot. Firm soil after planting and water regularly for the first month.
