Aster 'Starshine'

Let's face it, gardening is not an endeavor for those seeking perfection. Plants may succumb to the extremes of weather, or look the worse for wear due to bugs or disease. 'Starshine Japanese Aster' is one perennial that handles heat and sun like a champ, is highly resistant to powdery mildew, and produces loads of small daisy-like flowers from the height of summer right up until freeze. Topping out around two feet tall and about as wide, this hardy perennial is small enough for container planters while also providing a spectacular display in borders and mass plantings. Better yet, once the foliage dies back in the fall, the gardener needs only wait for 'Starshine Japanese Aster' to reappear in the spring.
