Callistephus chinensis (Aster) QIS® Matsumoto White – Elegant white cut flower of top quality

The Callistephus chinensis (Aster) QIS® Matsumoto White is a beautiful, early-flowering aster from the popular Matsumoto series. With its bright white, semi-double flowers and contrasting yellow center, this variety brings freshness and elegance to both gardens and bouquets.

Like all Matsumoto varieties, Matsumoto White boasts strong, upright stems, professional florist quality, and Fusarium tolerance, allowing it to perform reliably under a wide range of growing conditions. This aster is ideal for cut flower production, borders, or sustainable gardens.


Beautiful white flowers with a yellow heart

The flowers of the QIS® Matsumoto White are semi-double and approximately 5–6 cm in diameter, giving them a full and graceful appearance. The bright yellow at the center of the flower contrasts beautifully with the white petals, making this aster a striking addition to gardens and bouquets.

The plants reach a height of 60–70 cm and grow on sturdy, straight stems, making them excellent cut flowers. Flowering begins early and runs from July to October, so you can enjoy these elegant white flowers for a long time.


Strong growth and Fusarium tolerance

The Matsumoto series is known for its reliable cultivation and disease resistance. The Matsumoto White is tolerant to Fusarium wilt, a soil-borne fungus that attacks many asters.

For healthy and flowering plants it is important to:

  • Change location annually or disinfect the soil.

  • Avoid overwatering and ensure well-draining soil.

  • Choose a sunny and airy spot for optimal growth.

With these simple cultivation methods, Matsumoto White will reliably deliver professional-quality flowers season after season.
