Description
Add a splash of late-season colour to your garden with Aster novae-angliae 'Alice Haslam'. This delightful perennial is prized for its compact size and clusters of vibrant pink flowers, each with a cheerful golden centre. Blooming from late summer through to autumn, Alice Haslam brings life and brightness to your garden when other plants may have faded, ensuring a continuous display of colour into the cooler months.
Ideal for British gardens, this hardy aster thrives in well-drained, fertile soil and enjoys a spot in full sun. Resilient against the variable UK weather, it reliably returns year after year. Reaching a height of around 30-45 cm, Alice Haslam is perfect for the front of borders, cottage-style plantings, or as a charming addition to patio containers where its compact form can be appreciated.
Beyond its beauty, Aster novae-angliae 'Alice Haslam' is also loved by bees and butterflies, making it an excellent choice for those looking to support pollinators and promote biodiversity. Supplied as bare root plants, they establish quickly and require minimal maintenance, rewarding gardeners with a long-lasting, striking display.
Aster Alice Haslam thrives best in full sun. It can tolerate partial shade, but for the best flowering performance and to ensure strong, healthy growth, planting in a spot with plenty of sunlight is ideal. Full sun helps promote more abundant and vibrant blooms, making it a standout in your garden.
Select Aster Alice Haslam for a vibrant touch that brightens up your garden at a time when colour is most needed.
