Sowing & Growing
To sow Aster Red seeds in the UK, you should start by preparing the soil where you want to plant them. The soil should be well-drained, loose, and fertile. You can add compost or organic matter to the soil to improve its fertility and structure.
The best time to sow Aster Red seeds in the UK is from late March to early May. You can start the seeds indoors in trays or pots, or you can sow them directly in the soil where you want them to grow. If you start the seeds indoors, place them in a bright, warm spot, and keep the soil moist but not waterlogged.
When sowing the seeds directly in the soil, create shallow trenches about 30cm apart and sow the seeds thinly, covering them with a light layer of soil. Water the soil well after sowing, and keep it moist until the seedlings have germinated.
Aster Red typically takes 12-14 weeks to bloom after sowing, so they should start flowering from mid-summer to early autumn. Deadhead the flowers regularly to encourage further blooming and prevent the plant from self-seeding. Additionally, ensure the plants receive adequate sunlight, water, and nutrients to promote healthy growth and flowering.
