100 Aster Seeds Aromatic Aster Native Wildflower Pollinator Garden Blooms Heirloom Flower

Aromatic Aster is a hardy native perennial wildflower cherished for its late-season display of soft lavender-blue daisy-like blooms with golden centers. Blooming into autumn when most other flowers have faded, it brings lasting color and lively motion to meadows, borders, and naturalized areas.
This easy-to-grow heirloom is a favorite for pollinator and wildflower gardens, pairing beautifully with grasses and other late-blooming perennials. Its abundant blossoms make excellent cut flowers, and its compact, bushy habit works well in cottage gardens, prairie plantings, and containers.
