Aster 'Little Carlow' is a beautiful and popular herbaceous perennial known for its charming blue-violet daisy-like flowers that bloom in late summer and autumn, attracting butterflies and bees to the garden. The plant has a bushy, upright habit and grows up to 60-90 cm tall, making it an excellent choice for borders, cottage gardens, and wildflower meadows. Its dark green leaves provide a lovely contrast to the flowers and remain attractive throughout the growing season. This aster is easy to grow and low maintenance, making it a great choice for novice gardeners or those looking for an effortless addition to their garden.
Why we like it:
- Adds a pop of blue-violet colour to the late summer and autumn garden
- Attracts pollinators to the garden, contributing to a healthy ecosystem
- Low maintenance and easy to grow, making it suitable for beginners
What to know:
- Plant in well-draining soil in full sun to partial shade
- Water regularly during the growing season, but avoid overwatering
- Deadhead spent flowers to prolong the blooming period
- Cut back in autumn after flowering has finished to encourage new growth in the following season
- Can be divided every few years in spring to maintain vigour and prevent overcrowding
