A stunning flower for the garden or for arrangements. Dazzling shimmering purpley-blue pompoms with a yellow core surrounded by halos of outer petals lightening into pinks and white. A most unusual aster. This species is typically an annual, but may behave as a biennial in some places. Bees and butterflies just love it. Our seed comes from Wild Garden Seed in Oregon.
