Native to prairies, meadows, and streambanks of eastern North America, New England Aster is noted for its bright purple daisy-like flowers that bloom in late summer to fall. In the garden, a simple trim in late spring or early summer will control height and improve branching. Allow plenty of airflow to give room for bees and butterflies to fly and approach (and to prevent foliage issues). Grows 3-6' tall. Plant 24" apart.
