ASTER DIPLOSTEPHIOIDES
Aster diplostephioides produces elegant narrow rayed lilac daisies, strikingly large and reminiscent of echinacea blooms. Flowering from July to September and reaching 45cm, it offers a refined, naturalistic look to borders and meadows.
Native to the Himalayas and China, this hardy perennial thrives in well drained soil and full sun. A graceful, unusual aster that blends beautifully into wildflower style planting schemes.
