Sometimes called bushy aster or rice button aster, symphyotrichum dumosum is a native plant with plenty of vigor and hardiness. Prepare to be amazed with this new variety, ready to wow in a unique blue-lavender color. Blue asters rarely show off this large, billowing growth habit, so you'll love the combination of size and color with Wow! Asters. This species blooms up to a month earlier than other asters, kicking off the season in stunning color. This aster shows off all the benefits of native plants, with pollinator-attracting qualities and easy care needs. Symphyotrichum dumosum Wow Blue
