Aster (Callistephus Tall Double Gremlin Dark Rose) - Annuals grow quickly from flower seeds and bloom heavily, and these Tiger Paw Asters are no exception. Start the Aster seeds to grow this tall Gremlin variety that has large, double blooms of dark rose. Aster Callistephus makes a great cut flower with long, strong stems and a long vase-life. These Aster plants are often called Tiger Paw Aster because of the huge, double blooms that have curved petals. They are said to resemble a tiger's paw.
Sow Aster seeds indoors in the spring. Press the flower seeds into the soil and lightly cover them. Transplant Aster plants outside once frost danger has passed. They prefer well-drained soil and a full sun to partial shade position.
