Aster: A Burst of Late-Season Colour.
Asters, sometimes known as Michaelmas daisies, are a wonderful way to bring fresh colour to the garden just as summer blooms begin to fade. With their daisy-like flowers in shades of purple, pink, blue, and white, Asters brighten up borders and beds from late summer into autumn. Their delicate, star-shaped blooms seem to float atop slender stems, adding a light, airy feel to planting schemes. For gardeners seeking a plant that extends the colour and vibrancy of the garden well into autumn, Asters are an excellent choice that keeps borders lively.
