  • Overview

    Start the aster harvest with these ruffled, 2-3" wide light pink double blooms on sturdy stems and vigorous plants. Similar color to Tower Salmon but earlier to mature and plants are more uniform. Miss Europe Resist bloomed 5-7 days earlier than the Tower series in our trials. Bloom form is similar to the Tower series, although blooms are slightly looser and more ruffled. Peony-type blooms looks similar to heirloom garden mums. Also known as summer aster.
