Each flower measures 6.5-8cm across, with petals only slightly curled, giving the blooms a neat, refined shape that sits beautifully in a vase.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis annual aster is productive, throwing up plenty of long, sturdy stems ready for picking, and the flowers hold their colour and shape well after cutting thanks to a long vase life. One thing worth knowing before you plant: Lady Coral Lavender flowers as the days shorten, so expect the best display through autumn rather than the height of summer, which makes it a handy variety for extending your cut flower season into the cooler months.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBecause the plants are productive and the stems can grow quite tall, providing some support as they develop will help keep everything upright and make harvesting easier, especially if you're growing a row specifically for cutting.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan\u003eGrowing Aster Lady Coral Lavender\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSow from September through to November at a germination temperature of 18-22°C, and expect seedlings within 7-14 days. Plants take 90-120 days from transplant to reach maturity and grow to 85-100cm, so plan for support such as stakes or netting as they gain height. As an annual, sow fresh seed each season for the best results.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Kings Seeds NZ","offers":[{"title":"50 seeds","offer_id":49214772052276,"sku":"F1489.pkt","price":0.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0729\/0555\/6276\/files\/F1489-W.png?v=1785285409","url":"https:\/\/www.kingsseeds.co.nz\/products\/aster-lady-coral-lavender","provider":"Kings Seeds NZ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
