Description: Lavender/blue petals surround a bright yellow button with a wonderfully eye-catching contrast. Blooming from July to September, Asters last long after most other wildflowers have faded. Asters will attract both birds and butterflies into your yard, and their height gives them good presence in a large space. Smooth Asters are not aggressively spreading by rhizomes and are more likely to be seedy which can be controlled by deadheading.
Found in Nature: Prairie ditches, meadows and open wooded areas.
Distribution: Common - Prairie, Foothills, Montane
Notes: Available as larger potted stock - pick up only.
Latin genus name recently changed from Aster to Symphyotrichum
