Aster Paeony Duchess Apricot Colored Callistephus Chinensis is one of the most beautiful annual asters. This variety of Paeony Duchess Aster produces huge, peony-like, apricot colored flowers with fully double incurved petals that are similar to a Chrysanthemum. Callistephus Chinensis grows vigorously and features up to 5-8 upright floral stems per plant. The fragrant blooms appear from summer through fall attracting masses of birds, bees and butterflies. 

Aster Paeony Duchess Apricot is a perfect flower for cutting gardens, and it is for borders and flower beds as well. Like all China Asters, Aster Duchess is heat resistant and likes full sun, but can tolerate some partial shade as long as well-drained soil and moderate watering are provided. Aster Paeony makes a magnificent, long lasting cut flower.

OVM Seeds (the seller) warrants seed to be of the variety and quantity advertised. For domestic U.S. shipments, safe delivery is guaranteed, and if the shipment is insured, the seeds lost or damaged during shipment will be replaced at seller's expense.

Seed is a live product which depends on many important related grower skills such as proper planting time, seed depth, type of soil, irrigation, proper use of fertilizers, weed controls, fungicides, insecticides, disease free soil, and reasonable weather conditions during the growing period. Germination is affected by such factors as temperature, moisture content, light intensity and contamination of planting media. These factors are totally out of the seller's control and are the buyer's responsibility and risk. Consequently, the seller cannot unconditionally guarantee seed to perform properly regardless of conditions or the buyer's methods or mistakes.

This is the sole warranty; we make no other, express or implied. We cannot guarantee establishment of seed due to various factors over which we have no control. Liability, whether contractual, for negligence or otherwise, is limited in all respects to the amount of the purchase price of the seeds, regardless of the nature, cause or extent of the loss. It is expressly agreed that this limited remedy is exclusive and that we shall not be liable for any damages over and above the purchase price of this product. And as a condition to any liability on our part, we must receive notice by registered mail of any claim.
