Aster 'Lady in Blue' - 2026

Aster 'Lady in Blue' is a striking perennial cultivar prized for its vivid violet-blue, daisy-like flowers with bright yellow centres that bloom from late summer into autumn. Its upright, clump-forming habit and dark green foliage provide structure and contrast, making it an excellent addition to borders, cottage gardens, and mixed perennial beds. The nectar-rich flowers attract bees and butterflies, supporting pollinators while extending the garden’s seasonal interest when many other blooms are fading. Hardy and easy to grow, 'Lady in Blue' thrives in well-drained soil with full sun to partial shade. Regular deadheading promotes prolonged flowering and helps maintain a neat and tidy appearance, ensuring long-lasting colour throughout the late-season garden.
