Description

Aster ericoides is a beautiful aster producing a dense and ramified bushy clump. From late summer to late autumn, it is covered with an abundance of small white flowers with yellow hearts. 

It prefers dry soil.

 

The Aster genus produces a large number of floriferous perennials, in all colours, for spring, summer or autumn, and for all kinds of uses and growing mediums. Autumn hybrids, tall or small, will benefit from being divided every 2 to 3 years to regenerate the stump and protect them from powdery mildew.
