China Aster ‘Juwel Ametrin Lavendel’ | Callistephus chinensis

Lavender Ombre Elegance for Late Summer Bouquets

China Aster ‘Juwel Ametrin Lavendel’ (Callistephus chinensis) is an exceptional variety from the renowned Juwel series, prized by florists for its large, refined, and perfectly shaped blooms.
Each palm-sized flower displays a mesmerizing sea anemone-like form — a creamy, pale center surrounded by multiple layers of delicately quilled petals in soft lavender, amethyst, and violet tones. The result is a breathtaking ombré effect, where light and color blend into a graceful gradient of pastel purple shades.

This elegant aster grows 60–75 cm tall and develops strong, upright stems that hold upward-facing flowers, making it a top choice for cut flower arrangements, weddings, and refined garden displays. The blooms are not only artistically sculpted but also exceptionally durable, maintaining their beauty and freshness for over a week in the vase.

A true masterpiece for florists and gardeners alike, Juwel Ametrin Lavendel combines romantic charm, longevity, and professional-grade performance — a must-have for those who seek refined floral perfection in late summer and autumn.
