Hi I have a packet of seeds that I got in an exchange. The only problem is that the writting is all in spanish I think.

They are called Aster Rainnha and look beautiful on the package. I'd like to know how to grow them but I need some help.

Thankyou in advance.

It is Portuguese [Basque]. It is Chinese Aster, Queen [probably referring to Queen Margarida [ Margarita]. Planting instructions depends on variety and zone. The closest one is probably Aster Alpinus.

Yahoo has a site that will translate for you.

http://babelfish.yahoo.com/

You can type in what's on the package and it will change it from Spanish to English.

Good luck, MartiV
