Omega Skyrocket Stoke's Aster
This strain produces seedlings that will flower anywhere from lavender blue to white and thrives in full sun. A North American native, this species is a great choice for locations that experience hot humid summers. It dislikes heavy, wet winter soils, so planting on a slight mound in the garden is recommended. A pollinator magnet for both birds and insects. The basal foliage retains a mounded appearance as the flowering spikes shoot up.
