Aster carolinianus (syn. Ampelaster carolinianus) (Climbing Aster)

SKU:
$12.00
$12.00
Unavailable
Aster carolinianus (syn. Ampelaster carolinianus), or Climbing
Aster, is a wonderful addition to the fall garden, and who doesn't like an aster?  This native aster is a climbing aster, to boot. Aster 
carolinianus grows in full sun to partial shade from
six to 15 feet or more and isn't fussy - dry or moist
soil will do - and it is drought tolerant.  The alternating, oval
leaves and lavender pink, aster-like blooms put on quite a show
in late fall, especially if given a support on which to climb.  Bee and
butterfly magnet.  Quarts.  Zones (6?) 7-9.
