Our thanks to one of horticulture's good guys, Jim Fox for bringing us a plant of this lovely Aster from one of his trips to the UK.  We'll have to go with him some time to learn how to balance plant shopping and carousing but now that we think on it, all of us regard plant shopping as carousing..........we can't be getting old - no, we're just wiser.  After all, that Aster will still be there in the morning.  This was named for Princess Sturdza's garden at Le Vasterival in France and that should be recommendation enough.  Neither pink nor lavender but firmly positioned in that descriptive Bermuda Triangle of the in-between which allows it to mingle effortlessly with a broad palette of colors.  A vigorous grower to 5' with deep royal plum colored stems and flowers for weeks in September.   When shipped in the fall, we'll need to cut this plant back.
