One of the best Asters for superb color and form. An upright perennial with thick stems and long-lasting blooms. Very versatile for almost all garden sites, whether it is a border, rock garden, waterside, or dry area.
Rapidly develops into an airy mound as broad as it is tall, as much as 3' by 3' in rich soil. Covered with lavender-blue daisy flowers with a yellow center from July until a hard freeze.

I bought some red sunflower seeds from this website. I also bought seeds from the big box store. The seeds I bought from this website sprouted first and look very robust. I am ordering more. Look for the next review once they bloom!!!
The seeds arrived quickly but we did not receive part of our order. We are still waiting for the ones we received to grow so too early for full review.
