Aster ‘Winston Churchill’ is a bold, late-season performer known for its striking crimson-red, double flowers that add rich colour to the garden from late summer into autumn. The bushy, upright habit and prolific flowering make it a standout in borders or cottage garden schemes. It’s a magnet for pollinators when few other plants are still in bloom, and its deep colouring pairs beautifully with ornamental grasses, rudbeckias, and other autumnal favourites. A reliable, hardy perennial with classic charm and vibrant presence.
