Notes
'Azumi XL White' aster (Callistephus chinensis 'Azumi XL White') is an annual for borders, cut flowers, and containers. It grows well in cool weather and can ride out a light frost. This plant likes full or part sun and average to moist soil of most types. It grows fast and stands erect at 28 to 36 inches tall. White flowers bloom from early to late summer and again in early to late autumn, and they draw butterflies and bees.
Pairs well with Double Zahara Fire zinnia, Supertunia Bordeaux petunia, and Red fescue.
