Aster novae-angliae 'Purple Dome' (New England Aster)

This dwarf native New England Aster blooms through September with an intensity that's hard to believe. The 1" purple flowers are so dense that they entirely cover the foliage, creating a dome of bright purple 18" high. Plants don't need staking and show almost no mildew. Try 'Purple Dome' with Sedum 'Autumn Joy' for over 2 months of stunning color.
