Septembers are loved by gardeners, because this perennial herbaceous plant reproduces very well and does not require special care. They grow violently: although they are small, there are a lot of them on the bush, so the blooming september flowers, star flowers, look luxurious, and hordes of bees and bumblebees always swarm above them.
Externally, the September flower resembles a small daisy or aster. This plant belongs to the Aster family, its name is Aster perennial (Aster perennial). There are varieties of September high, above 1 m, and curb - from 30 cm.
September borders are magnificent. These flowers are used to create decorative fences along the paths. In spring, the bushes quickly grow, gradually forming a dense green mass. Closer to autumn, they begin to bloom together. If the bushes stand separately, then they are covered with a bright hat.
September flowers growing in a stripe along the path look even more interesting. A wide solid bright ribbon looks simply luxurious! Flowering continues until November. During the summer, the bushes grow in breadth twice. Amazing septembers are not afraid of frosts and give new shoots in spring.

Dig up the bush, divide it into parts. The main thing is that each should have several live sprouts. The land for planting is dug up on a shovel bayonet and be sure to fertilize, because in one place September trees grow without a transplant for about 6 years. They love sunny areas, but do well in partial shade.
Septembers grow very quickly, so the bushes should be planted at some distance from each other: curb varieties are about 25 cm, and tall ones - 45 cm. These flowers are unpretentious and do not require frequent watering. If watering is rare, the bushes will be shorter. Overgrown plants should be rejuvenated so that they do not degenerate: dig up, divide into parts, seat.
The weak point for the Septembers is their defenselessness against a disease such as powdery mildew. The small leaves of the plant are covered with a bluish bloom. You can fight this scourge, but using copper-containing chemicals. Twice a season it is desirable to fertilize under the bushes of September.
