The month of September is like a bridge, a gentle passage that leads from the hot summer to the cooler autumn.

A very important moment for the nature and life of the plants and also for yours, which you are about to face a new path, the beginning of a new cycle. In September the colors are transformed from saturated and bright to soft watercolors that paint gardens and balconies.

In this magical month where the light begins to fall and everything is soft, a sweet revival of the daily life cycle takes place away from the summer excesses.

Paying attention, in the fields that surround the cities you will be able to see some beautiful yellow or white tufts, the Settembrini, similar to large daisies, accompany you at the gates of autumn.

Perennial herbaceous plants are part of the Aster family. They love bright and sunny environments and live well if planted in soft, rich soil with organic material.

Often they are sold in small jars and so that the plant can grow in the best way, it is good to lay a gravel and then the organic material before planting.

The Aster loves the temperatures of autumn, which stimulate flowering. With frosts, it goes to rest, its ideal environment is on the balcony or in the garden.

Furthermore the Settembrini are precious for the protection of urban biodiversity in fact their flowers are very appreciated by bees for which they are a nutrient source before resting in the winter season.

The color of the flowers with shades of blue or purple with a yellow center is also much loved by butterflies, if you want to see their flights on your balcony or in the garden grow these beautiful flowers also in pots.

Happy September!
