In the garden
Erigeron 'Dimity' is a cultivated selection within the genus Erigeron (family Asteraceae) and is offered for its summer display: flowering runs from June to September in the UK. As a named cultivar, its exact cultural needs can vary, so consult the plant label or supplier for recommended aspect, soil type and hardiness information specific to this selection. When you have the cultivar details, match the site's conditions to the supplier guidance. Take care with establishment: follow the planting depth on the pot label, water until the rootball is settled and observe the first season for moisture needs. Containers and planted schemes allow easier control of soil and drainage if the garden's conditions differ from the recommended situation. Use Erigeron 'Dimity' where a reliable summer flowering window is required; it can be effective for extending colour into late summer and linking earlier bulbs or spring perennials to autumn-flowering plants. Retain the supplier's aftercare notes for pruning or watering schedules unique to this cultivar, and note the June–September flowering period when planning season-long combinations.
