New England aster is a fast-growing, perennial forb that blooms a purple ray flower with a bright yellow disk later in the season from August to October. The New England aster is another plant known for attracting butterflies and moths for pollination. Unfortunately, the Aster family can suffer from various forms of stem-rot and a bleached appearance caused by yellow disease. However, this plant is seldom severely browsed by deer.
