Asters are a relatively fuss-free addition to your fall garden. They’re a perennial for late summer and fall color, extending interest until the very end of the growing season.
- The word Aster comes from the Latin word for “star.”
- Some types of this plant can reach up to six feet tall with flowers in shades of white, pink, purple and blue.
- Bees, butterflies and other pollinators love Aster’s nectar-rich flowers, making it a pollinator-friendly plant!
- Asters are North American natives that have been broadly adapted to a variety of growing conditions and climates.
