Aster ericoides 'Monte Cassino'

(HEATH ASTER) Often overlooked and underused, this fantastic garden filler and cut flower deserves more recognition. Handsome bushy clumps of small deep green leaves mound out 18-24”…over a period of several weeks in late summer and into fall, clumps are topped with 2½ to 3’ tall wands loaded with clusters of miniature white, yellow centered daisies. Attracts butterflies and florists. Average soil, full sun and minimal fuss. Historically a symbol of charm & patience; burning leaves drives away serpents and attracts love.
