I wonder if it will perform better next year. I imagine it has spent this season putting on lots of fresh new root growth at the expense of flowers, so next year, will flower even better than before. The only other thing I wonder is if asters don't like being moved in spring but would prefer autumn? I didn't know some plants were picky, but I have discovered that grasses for example, should only be split or moved in spring as they won't put on any new root growth during autumn and winter, and they just give up and die! I would leave it be Richard, give it a good feed in spring, and I bet it is amazing next summer.
