The demand of quality blooms of China aster variety Poornima on festive occasions is more due to its white colour since they are used with red roses. Although powderpuff type blooms are preferred for their attractive flowers, they are poor seed setters. Foliar spraying of boric acid (0.1%) given twice, first at one month after planting and the second after an interval of 15 days, is promising for higher seed yield (4.99g/plant, 553kg/ha).
