Erigeron ‘Pink Jewel’
Approx. 100 seeds. A versatile, easygoing perennial producing masses of lilac‑pink, daisy‑like flowers from late spring right through to autumn. ‘Pink Jewel’ is tall, bushy and clump‑forming, with long‑stemmed blooms that make it an excellent cut flower. It’s low‑maintenance, generous, and a favourite with bees, butterflies and other pollinators. Plants self‑seed readily and keep borders lively for months.
Grow in any well‑drained soil in sun or partial shade, avoiding wet or poorly drained ground. Most erigerons don’t need deadheading — simply cut back straggly stems at the end of the season without removing the whole plant. Sow on the surface and lightly cover; prick out when two pairs of true leaves are present, or direct sow by scattering in spring.
