Aster novi-belgii ‘Blue Danube’ at Digging Dog
Michaelmas Daisies
We never tire of Aster’s cheerful daisy
faces and the profusion of colors and sizes that make
up this genus, from 6 ft. giants to tiny dwarf
alpines. Our Asters, large and small, are tried and true
performers in ordinary garden soil and full sun.
Generally late summer bloomers, they provide lots
of oomph when other perennials have petered out. Aster novi-belgii ‘Blue Danube’
This Aster’s alluring flowers promise a
late season hurrah. Supported by stiff branching
stems lined with verdant linear foliage, the blooms are
the size of silver dollars, and layers of their closely
set blue-violet petals radiate from yellow and
maroon centers. ‘Blue Danube’ lends an air
of elegance in the midst of Calamagrostis
brachytricha and Angelica gigas.
Blooms September–early October. Size: 3' high x 2' wide; hardy to zone 5. Aster novi-belgii ‘Blue Danube’ (P-0921) Each $6.75
