Super pink, we had a double helping of Asters this weekend, first at the Malvern show and second at Picton Nurseries who hold the national collection, just wonderful, so many fantastic colours......

You would love it, we first visited over 20 years ago when we lived in Staffs and were impressed then, it has grown tremendously, I shall be doing a blog when I have the energy!!

I had one of these but it only lasted a couple of seasons, it is a real beauty

What a shame - I wonder why it didn't like your garden?

Yes and that was the only one I lost, they all came from the same supplier and were all planted the same day!

How odd. I'm trying to remember how many years my two plants have been in...it's a long time.

Edit:
I just checked in my 'garden' list and they were there in 2007...
