SYMPHYOTRICHUM novi-belgii 'Fellowship'

Description

Symphyotrichum novi-belgii 'Fellowship'

Height x Spread: 75cm x 50cm

'Fellowship' bears clusters of large, double, soft pink flowers with saffron yellow centres, on upright stems with glossy, pointed oval leaves. As the flowers of this rather gorgeous Michaelmas Daisy mature, the petals twist gently making them appear even fuller, adding to their visual impact in a garden.

An excellent perennial for injecting long-lasting, late season colour into a mixed or herbaceous border, they also look beautiful combined with ornamental grasses in more naturalistic planting schemes, or cut for vases.  To keep their vigorous growth, divide them regularly every three years. They perform best in nutritionally rich, damp soil that has been well cultivated, in full sun.
