aster reply

Hi Bob,
   I'm glad to hear that your asters are doing so well and have to
laugh at your suggestion that I plant some.  The fact of the matter is
that I have three of them and there has not been one inch of growth on
them since I planted them last spring.  They just sit there in a
comatose state all nice and green and do absolutely nothing.  Maybe
next year.  
   Actually I exaggerated when I said that only my shasta daisies were
blooming.  I still have blooms on my Ladybells (campanula) and I'm
going to let them go to seed.  My painted daisies( which everyone
scorns) began blooming on June 25 and have never stopped.  It started
out as one spindly little plant (from the dreaded Michigan Bulb Co)
and has bloomed it's little heart out.  Even now as it is gasping its
last, it has 26 big flowers on it.  Most of my other stuff I have cut
way back so that the plants can concentrate on developing new base
growth and not spend their autumn days trying to produce seeds. 
Anyway, maybe next fall I will be bragging about my asters.  
Jeanne
