China Aster “Bonita Shell Pink” (Callistephus chinensis)

These gorgeous blooms will make your jaw drop. The abundant "spray" type stems boast multiple pom-pom blooms with pale pink edges and warm creamy yellow centers. A truly stunning addition to any arrangement. Blooms are long lasting in the vase, looking fabulous for 7-10 days or more.

When ready to harvest, cut the entire plant at the ground (one stem with multiple blooms) to create an instant bouquet. Alternatively, pull the spray of blooms apart and use the individual blooms in mixed bouquets.
