Symphyotrichum ericoides 'Snow Flurry'

Overview

Heath Aster (Symphyotrichum ericoides 'Snow Flurry') is a showy perennial aster, providing a long season of bloom in the garden. Finely-textured foliage provides deep green coloration, and bright white flowers appear in late summer and fall. The Snow Flurry variety of heath aster will create a cloud-like appearance, with small white aster blossoms standing out against the green foliage. It can be planted in a grouping with other perennials, or as a stand-alone specimen in a sunny or partly-shaded area. Heath aster is an easy-care plant, requiring only moderate water and regular fertilization.
