Stokesia Peachie’s Pick Cornflower Aster
SKU: n/a.A vibrant selection, Peachie’s Pick Cornflower Aster, Stokesia, adorns the garden with enormous, periwinkle-blue blooms. The blossoms are held high and flat on strong stems making them perfect for cutting. Peachie’s Pick Blue Cornflower Aster blooms much longer and a bit later than other varieties. It begins its prolific blooming in June with flowers continually appearing throughout summer into September. The jewel-tone blue blossoms are enhanced by its deep grass-green foliage. Plants create a stunning display in the garden and the vase. An old-fashioned delight, Stokesia has won a top spot on perennial gardeners’ favorite lists for generations. Also known as Stoke’s Aster.
Use Peachie’s Pick in perennial beds, cottage and cutting gardens, or as an edger. A top choice, Peachie’s Pick has the reputation of being one of the very best Stokesia available. Highly recommended.
Plant in full sun in average, well-drained soil. Although tolerant of drought, plants prefer moist soil and will perform best with consistent moisture. Remove spent blossoms to encourage more flowering.
