More Information About Symphyotrichum

Symphyotrichum is the new name for the US native asters. Symphyotrichum is a splendid drought-tolerant, late-season flowering perennial that lends cooler blue-violet tones to the bright, exciting colors of fall. Native aster species generally thrive in full sun and average garden soil. Symphyotrichum flowers attract native bees and butterflies and pair well with other perennial wildflowers such as bluestar (Amsonia), goldenrod (Solidago), muhly grass (Muhlenbergia), sunflower (Helianthus), and blazing star (Liatris).
