GermiSync™ treated for same season germination
New England Aster is a tall native perennial covered in purple blooms late in the season, after many other wildflowers have faded. It also provides much-needed nectar for migrating butterflies and native bees before winter. The tiny seeds are coated with GermiSync™ to skip cold stratification, then pelleted so they are easier to see, plant, and spread evenly.

RAKE
Clear away weeds and debris, then loosen the top inch of soil. Good prep helps the seeds make proper contact with the soil.
SHAKE
Shake pellets evenly across your area (~1 inch apart). Each pellet contains one seed, so spacing stays consistent and planting stays controlled.
PAT
Rake or pat seeds snug into the soil. This keeps them in place and ensures strong seed-to-soil contact.
WATER
Water once or twice daily. The soil should look dark, like a damp sponge for the first 2-3 weeks to to kickstart germination.
