Smooth Blue Aster (3" pot)

Smooth blue aster is a perennial forb with thick, stout leaves and pale, blue ray flowers with yellow disks that bloom August to October. Along with attracting butterflies for pollination, smooth blue aster also attracts white-tailed deer, as it is very palatable to them. This plant will grow back after deer consumption, however, herbicides especially those used on quack grass, can damage the aster’s establishment.
