White wood aster

Aster divaricatus, commonly known as White Wood Aster, is a charming native perennial found in woodland areas across eastern North America. It typically blooms in late summer to early fall, producing clusters of small, daisy-like white flowers with yellow centers. The delicate blooms contrast beautifully with the plant's dark green foliage, creating a lovely display in shady garden spots. White Wood Aster is a versatile plant that thrives in a range of soil types, from moist to dry, and it can tolerate partial to full shade. It is an excellent choice for woodland gardens, shade borders, or naturalized areas, where it can provide late-season color and attract pollinators like bees and butterflies. Easy to grow and maintain, Aster divaricatus is a valuable addition to any garden seeking to enhance its natural beauty and support local wildlife.
