Boltonia asteroides ‘Snowbank’


False Aster

USDA Zone: 4-9

Plant number: 1.106.100


Similar in effect to a tall fall-blooming Aster or Michaelmas Daisy. Billowing clouds of clear white, golden-eyed daisies appear in late summer and fall. Foliage is clean and healthy, forming a bushy upright mound that should not require staking.. Nice background plant for a sunny border. Flowers are also great for cutting. Selected from a native North American wildflower. Tolerates summer heat and humidity. Plants may be kept at a more compact size by pinching once or twice before the end of June, otherwise they may need to be staked. Easily divided in early spring.
