Bring late-season color and nonstop pollinator activity to your garden with Purple New England Aster Seeds (Aster novae-angliae)—a beloved U.S. native wildflower also known as Hardy Aster or Michaelmas Daisy. This long-lived perennial produces masses of vibrant purple or pink daisy-like blooms atop sturdy 4-foot stems, making it a standout in meadows, cottage gardens, borders, and pollinator habitats.
Blooming from early to late fall, New England Aster is one of the most important late-season nectar sources for honeybees, native bees, and migrating monarch butterflies. Its tall, full form and abundant blooms make it a perfect cut-flower variety as well.
