Blooms Summer – Fall

• Fragrance: The aromatic aster’s leaves and stems have a spicy, lemony scent when crushed.

“Aromatic Aster is one of the longest-blooming native asters, blooming up to two months in one season. The gorgeous, violet flowers add charm to any garden or meadow and delight the late season garden with prolific blooms. Growing to be about 1-3’ tall, this native perennial can be planted in a smaller perennial garden or in a prairie or meadow.” American Meadows
