Bring the beauty of the New England landscape to your garden with Symphyotrichum novae-angliae, also known as the New England Aster. This large and showy flowering plant is a herbaceous perennial that grows over 6 feet in height. Its hairy, clasping leaves are densely arranged on its stout stems, and bright, rose-purple flowers with orange-yellow centers bloom profusely at the tips of the leafy branches. The flower color varies from lavender and blue to white, and a pink variety of this species is sometimes grown commercially. Native to almost every area in North America east of the Rocky Mountains, the New England Aster is a must-have for any garden looking to add a splash of color and showiness to its landscape. Grow yours today and see why this magnificent plant has become a popular choice among gardeners.
