Aster divaricatus (syn. Eurybia divaricatus) – A pretty, small-leafed late season perennial, flowering from as early as late August through September and well into October in northeastern Connecticut, the White Wood Aster smothers itself in galaxies of small white stars with yellow hearts that age to violet. Place this excellent bee and butterfly plant in from dappled sun to one-quarter to three-quarters shade planted in fertile to average soil that holds just a bit of moisture between rains. Drought tolerant once established, especially when in more shade. The asters are another genus where the taxonomists (those who split, split and when you think they might be finished splitting split yet again) have fractured a simple understanding into a nightmare of a naming prism. Perhaps all responible parties should be forced into naming their first born sons, Eurybia... that'll learn 'em. Hehehehehe. Established pot grown perennial from cutting grown or division.
