Asters the returning gem

I really like the aster, this one keep surprising me. When I first planted these aster a couple of years ago it was a simple yellow center with purple petals. Since then there has been these pink ones and ones that are more like button mums. This deep purple color is welcome in the late summer garden. Just when the color around the deck has faded these ever faithful Asters show up with there bright colors. The planters around my deck have not been planted in a couple of years, what has grown in them has always been a surprise.
From sunflowers and Johny Jump ups to tomatoes and asters, ever decorating the border of the sunny deck. Having so many different plants around the house has attracted many kinds of birds and butterflies. If you set it up the right way your garden will do the same for you. It really is not hard to do and will be very rewarding.
