Aster x frikartii 'Monch'
a much-loved, long-flowering perennial that brings reliable colour and pollinator activity to the late summer border. Its large, daisy-like flowers in soft lavender-blue with golden-yellow centres appear from July right through to October, making it one of the earliest and longest-flowering asters available.
Unlike many other asters, 'Mönch' is completely mildew-free and holds its tidy, bushy shape without staking. The flowers are held on strong stems above clean, mid-green foliage, creating a relaxed, slightly open habit that pairs well with grasses, rudbeckias, and other late-season perennials.
Hardy, drought-tolerant once established, and easy to grow, it’s ideal for adding lasting impact to sunny borders.
