Aster

Aster, (otherwise known as September Flower), is a genus of the Asteraceae family. The name 'aster' is derived from the ancient Greek word meaning 'star' because of it's star shaped flower heads. Aster is a multi-headed flower used as a filler in the floristry trade. It also has the effect of adding softness to flower bouquets, arrangements and wedding flowers, (similar to gypsophilia). Aster is also popular in wedding flowers that require a cottage garden / vintage feel.

In the wholesale flower markets aster is sold in wraps of 25 stems and is available in stem lengths of 60 - 90cm depending on which grade and variety is required. Aster is available on the wholesale flower markets all year round. The main suppliers of aster to the UK flower markets are Holland and Israel.
