Symphyotrichum oblongifolium (Aromatic Aster) Seed
Description
Aromatic Aster, Symphyotrichum oblongifolium, is a hardy, low-growing perennial wildflower native to prairies and rocky outcrops in North America. Its bright lavender to blue flowers bloom late into the fall, and its foliage emits a pleasant aroma when crushed.
This species prefers full sun and well-drained soils, including rocky or sandy areas. Its compact growth habit makes it an excellent choice for borders, rock gardens, and pollinator gardens. Aromatic Aster supports bees, butterflies, and other beneficial insects late in the season.
