More Information

Description Embrace the vibrant blue hues from 'Wood's Blue' aster (Symphyotrichum cordifolium) in the fall! This charming perennial erupts in a dazzling display of vibrant color and daisy-like blooms just as summer comes to an end. These captivating blooms add contrasting color to your garden as many other plants transition to orange and red autumnal shades. The irresistible nectar of these blooms attracts butterflies, bees, and other beneficial insects, ensuring a delightful buzz of activity in your garden during the crucial late-season months.

Aster is a native perennial with a full, bushy habit that is naturally compact, making it perfect for borders or containers. It's generally low maintenance and easy to care for, so it's perfect for beginners. No trimming or shaping is required to keep it looking full and neat! All you have to do is sit back, relax, and enjoy the long-lasting blooms.
