Unlike many other Aster varieties, which become lax and difficult to manage as they grow, the Aster Alpha series stands apart with a naturally dwarf, dense, mounding habit that doesn’t require pinching out. Plants remain compact throughout the season, forming pleasing globes covered in multi-petalled, daisy-like flowers and resembling pot chrysanthemums. One of the earliest Asters to flower, the rich hues of Aster ‘Alpha Collection’ inject fresh colour into late summer and autumn borders that are beginning to flag. Their neat size and habit also make them perfect for containers. Aster ‘Alpha Collection’ associates beautifully with other late-season plants such as sedum, crocosmia and salvias. The flowers are highly attractive to beneficial pollinators. Height and spread: 25cm (10in).
Aster 'Alpha Collection' comprises the following varieties:
Height Up to 25cm (10in)
Spread Up to 25cm (10in)

Van Meuwen strives to ensure that all its plants are delivered to you in the perfect condition for planting. While the majority of our nursery plants cope well with slight delays in intransit, sadly, the time it takes to deliver to certain locations in the UK means that we can't guarantee this for some of our smaller plug products and tender bedding and vegetable lines, which do not respond well to the extra journey time. So regretfully while we offer the majority of our live plant offering nationwide, we are unable to ship plugs, begging plants and tender vegetable plants to the following areas: HS, IV41-IV49, IV51, IV55-56, KW15-KW17, PA34, PA41-48, PA60-PA78, PA80, PH40-PH44, TR21-TR24, ZE1-ZE3.
