Aster 'Wood's Purple' - 2026

Aster 'Wood's Purple' is a striking perennial cultivar renowned for its rich purple, daisy-like flowers with golden yellow centres that bloom from late summer into autumn. Its upright, clump-forming habit and dark green foliage provide structure and contrast, making it ideal for borders, cottage gardens, and mixed perennial beds. The nectar-rich blooms attract bees and butterflies, supporting pollinators while extending seasonal interest when many other flowers are fading. Hardy and easy to grow, 'Wood's Purple' thrives in well-drained soil with full sun to partial shade. Regular deadheading encourages prolonged flowering and helps maintain a neat, tidy appearance, making it a reliable choice for long-lasting late-season colour.
