Aster
Michaelmas Daisies
We never tire of Aster’s cheerful daisy faces and the profusion of colors and sizes that make up this genus, from 6 ft. giants to tiny dwarf alpines. Our Asters, large and small, are tried and true performers in ordinary garden soil and full sun. Generally late summer bloomers, they provide lots of oomph when many perennials have petered out.
Aster novi-belgii ‘White Swan’ (P-1088)
Each 11.50
A floriferous cultivar of our native Aster, ‘White Swan’ promises dense sprays housing profuse thin-rayed white blossoms with prominent saffron-hued centers. Slender, branched upright stems and narrow, lance-shaped green leaves fashion an attractive bushy base beneath the light-hearted late season pomp that tempts bees, birds, butterflies and floral designers alike. Heightened by maroon-tinged fall foliage plus pouffy seed heads, this winsome clump-forming perennial appreciates sun, adequate moisture, good drainage, average fertility and proper air flow.
Blooms September–October
Size: 2-1/2' – 3' 0" high x 18" – 22" wide.
Hardy to zone 4.
