Heath aster is a common species of dry, upland meadows, thriving in areas with relatively poor soils. It puts on a charming fall display with multiple small, white flowers, and offers great late-season pollinator support. This aster is a great companion for butterfly milkweed, gray goldenrod, and little bluestem, creating a natural northeastern plant community for well-draining or dry soils. In a fertile garden soil, it will be much more aggressive, so use it in the right place! Grows 24-30” tall. LOCAL ECOTYPE.
