Speaking of asters...

Is it better to plant in spring or fall? I have always planted in fall because that's when they're readily available, but they normally don't survive over the winter for me. Not sure if it's a hardiness issue or they just need to be better established before the onset of winter. I'm going to the nursery tomorrow and am wondering if I should pick up a few if they have them (I think this nursery does put some out for spring planting) - since I replace every fall anyway for the gorgeous shot of color, maybe I'll have better luck with spring planting - ? . Or are they just not that hardy? I'm speaking of cultivars like Purple Dome, BTW.
