These Asters are native to the Hill Country of Texas, and are generally found in moist soils. The flowers are 3/4 to 1 1/4 inches across. Masses of these purple blooms are really a sight to see in the fall! Like almost all of our fall blooming wildflowers, Tall Asters are a very important source of nectar for migrating Monarch butterflies. Get them established, and you and the butterflies will enjoy them for years to come!
