Description
White Wood Aster is a shade-loving perennial that thrives in Massachusetts gardens, offering a profusion of delicate white flowers with golden centers from mid to late summer. Its heart-shaped green leaves provide a lush backdrop, making it an excellent choice for naturalizing and woodland gardens. This hardy plant tolerates dry conditions once established, making it a low-maintenance addition to shaded landscapes. Regular watering at the root zone promotes abundant blooms and helps prevent fungal diseases.
With an upright spreading habit, White Wood Aster reaches a mature height and spread of 30 inches, filling garden beds with soft, airy texture. It attracts butterflies while resisting deer, making it ideal for mass plantings, border edging, and container gardening. This perennial prefers partial to full shade and well-draining soil, thriving even in urban environments.
