Plant height — China aster

Callistephus chinensis (L.) Nees

Height is a key morphological trait of the China aster (Callistephus chinensis), determining its varietal classification, planting scheme, and commercial use. The crop ranges from dwarf forms under 30 cm to tall varieties reaching 90 cm.

In the reference 20 varieties crop China aster, where this is mentioned in the description.

During variety testing, the height of the aster is measured in centimeters from the soil surface to the tip of the main shoot or inflorescence. Based on this indicator, three groups of varieties are distinguished: low (dwarf) up to 30 cm, medium from 30 to 50 cm, and high, reaching 50–90 cm.

The height trait determines the agrotechnology and use of the crop. Low-growing varieties are used in borders and container gardening, with planting distances between plants reduced to 20 cm. Tall varieties are grown primarily for cut flowers with a distance between plants of up to 40 cm, considering their increased sensitivity to wind load.
