100 Symphyotrichum lanceolatum Panicled Aster Seeds Wildflower Pollinator Garden

Panicled Aster, Symphyotrichum lanceolatum, is a native perennial wildflower admired for its clouds of small white to pale lavender daisy-like blooms in late summer and autumn. It brings a natural, meadow-like feel to borders, cottage gardens, and wildflower plantings, and its dense flowering habit makes it a standout in seasonal landscapes.
This aster suits informal beds, pollinator gardens, rain gardens, and naturalized areas where its tall, airy stems add late-season interest. The blooms appear over an extended period, followed by fluffy seed heads, and the plants blend well with grasses and other perennials. It performs best in consistently moist, well-drained soil and can spread steadily in favorable conditions.
