National Plant Network is pleased to offer the public a rare opportunity to obtain grower quality starter plugs in a bulk format typically reserved for industry professionals. Each tray contains 32 individually rooted 3 inch plugs, providing a cost effective way to tackle large landscaping projects and mass plantings. Aromatic Aster is a tough, native perennial known for its rigid green foliage that releases a pleasant aroma when crushed, covered in a spectacular blanket of daisy-like blue-purple flowers with yellow centers from late summer through autumn. It is highly versatile and performs best when used for pollinator habitats, rock gardens, mass drift plantings, or low maintenance native style borders. Young plants arrive healthy and ready to plant, flourishing quickly with regular watering and sunlight and are an excellent low maintenance solution for anyone looking to achieve professional landscaping results at a fraction of the cost.
