The 'Rosa Erfüllung' China aster will arrive as a grown seedling in a pot, which you can plant directly into its perennial location. For successful cultivation, choose full sun, ideally a really hot, sunny spot that simulates its native steppe conditions. The soil should be primarily permeable, even poor, sandy, or gravelly. On the other hand, avoid heavy and clay-like soil, where the roots could rot. We recommend planting the seedlings with a spacing of 35 to 40 centimeters, which corresponds to roughly seven to nine plants per square meter. This spacing ensures sufficient air circulation around each plant. The ideal time for planting is from spring to early autumn so that the plant has time to root well before winter.
Care for this long-lived perennial is undemanding and can be managed even by complete beginners. As for moisture, the aster prefers drier spots. After rooting, it requires watering only during very long and hot periods without rain. Too much water or over-fertilizing would lead to leggy and weak growth. On naturally poorer soils, it will maintain sturdy stems that grow to a height of 40 to 60 centimeters and do not need any support. During August to October, it will reward you with a profusion of light pink, even edible flowers. Regular removal of faded shoots will support the plant's vitality and extend the overall attractive appearance of the clump. We recommend leaving the dry stems on the bed over winter as natural protection and performing a cut-back just above the ground early in the spring.
The frost resistance of this variety is absolutely excellent; it easily tolerates temperatures dropping to minus twenty-eight degrees and requires no special winter cover. A great advantage is also its resistance to health ailments; it is simply a plant completely free of diseases and pests. If you do not have a garden available, you can successfully grow it in containers or large window boxes. Here, the selection of a pot with sufficiently large drainage holes and the use of substrate mixed with sand or fine gravel for perfect drainage is key. In a flowerpot, the substrate will dry out faster than in open soil, so check the watering regularly, but it still applies that the soil should slightly dry out between waterings.

Times may vary depending on the season, climate, location, sowing and transplanting dates and possibly also the conditions in the greenhouse/greenhouse. We always recommend testing how the plant performs in your conditions. Please do not take this as a guarantee.
