Eurybia divaricata ‘Eastern Star’

If you are not familiar with Wood Aster you should be! This is an extremely sturdy selection of a celebrated species requiring little human intervention. Neat little mound, 12-18 with lots of little white asters with yellow centers August>September that attract butterflies. Deep red stems contrast with flowers. Performs admirably in dry shade! Prefers good soil but tolerates most soils (clay, rocky); part shade to full shade. Will take moderate watering but dislikes summer wet.
