Description

Aster Azumi XL Rose (Callistephus chinensis) is a tall, premium annual aster that produces large, double pompon-style blooms in a soft rose-pink shade. Each flower measures approximately 7–7.5 cm across and opens gradually into a full, layered bloom with excellent vase life and form. The Azumi XL series is known for its strong stems, consistent height, and top-flowering, spray-type habit—making it ideal for both greenhouse and field cut-flower production.


The Azumi XL series produces strong, uniform stems that are easier to grow to height than the Matsumoto or Bonita series and features a top-flowering, spray-type habit ideal for professional cut flower production. With its elegant color and strong performance, Azumi XL Rose is an excellent choice for bouquets, floral arrangements, and late-summer to fall garden displays.
