Endemic to the meadows and open woodlands in northeast Asia, this hard working Aster cousin offers oodles of dainty, 1 in. wide, pale blue daisies all summer long. Shiny deep green lanceolate leaves shape a neat, compact small-sized mound beneath spry, long-blooming yellow-eyed flowers that lure bees and butterflies. Favoring a sunny well-drained abode, easy-care ‘Blue Star’ can reside in the rockery, cottage garden or massed in a border, where it effortlessly tackles clay soil, hot humid weather and periodic dry conditions.
