Aster amellus 'Doktor Otto Petschek' (Van de Schoot) is a classic compact aster which grows happily here on a partly sunny, but fairly dry, hillside. It is rounded in habit with dark green, lance-shaped leaves. By early August, it is haloed in well-branched flowering stems waiting to explode into a colorful late season show. Individual rayed-flowers have yellow centers.
Late August into autumn. 30 in. x 30 in.
Lavender flowers
