An extremely drought tolerant native aster excellent for dry, rocky or shallow soil. Self-seeds and spreads by rhizomes making it useful for erosion control. Attractive to several types of pollinating bees and butterflies. Late summer to mid fall bloom. (Syn. Symphyotrichum oolentangiense) 24 - 36"
Yearly Care Instructions- Cut back old stems in late winter to encourage fresh growth. Provide full sun and moderate watering. A light compost top-dress in spring aids blooming.
Trimming Instructions- Pinch back in late spring to promote bushier growth. Remove spent blooms to extend flowering.
Fertilization Instructions- Apply a balanced fertilizer (e.g., 14-14-14) once in early spring; moderate feeding need. Too much nitrogen in clay can lead to lanky growth and fewer blooms.
