Additional Information: False Aster is a tall, native wildflower that produces masses of small, white to pale lavender daisy-like flowers with yellow centers. Blooming in late summer through early fall, it provides an important nectar source for pollinators, including bees and butterflies, when many other wildflowers have finished blooming. This plant thrives in moist meadows, prairies, and along streambanks, but it is also adaptable to drier soils. Its upright, bushy growth habit makes it a great addition to prairie plantings, rain gardens, and pollinator-friendly landscapes, adding height and late-season color.
