Quick Facts

Full and Afternoon Sun Xeric Attract Hummingbirds  Legend

Description:

12” x 24”+ wide, (cutting propagated). Aster ‘Dream of Beauty’ is a superb high plains native. Introduced in 1960 by the visionary Great Plains plantsman Claude Barr for its vigorous, low-spreading habit and amazing fall display of sugar-pink flowers with burnt orange centers. Growing in a wide range of soil types, including clay, ‘Dream of Beauty’ spreads to form a dense carpet of flowers and foliage; so give it room! Wonderful planted with native grasses like ‘Blaze’ Little Bluestem, or Panicum ‘Dallas Blues’.

Zones 4-8.
