Description
Add a splash of late-season colour to your garden with Aster 'Alice Haslam'. This lovely perennial is known for its compact size and clusters of bright pink flowers with cheerful golden centres. Blooming from August to October, it adds colour and life to your garden just when many other plants are starting to fade.
Reaching a height of 30-45 cm, Alice Haslam is perfect for the front of borders, cottage-style plantings, or patio containers where its compact size can be enjoyed up close. This hardy plant thrives in well-drained, fertile soil and does best in full sun, though it can tolerate partial shade. For the brightest blooms and healthiest growth, a sunny spot is ideal.
This aster is also great for supporting wildlife, attracting bees and butterflies to your garden. Supplied as bare root plants, Alice Haslam is easy to establish in spring and needs little maintenance, giving you a reliable and colourful display year after year.
Choose Aster ‘Alice Haslam’ for a vibrant, low-maintenance plant that keeps your garden full of colour well into autumn.
