Aster New England

The homeland of New England or New Belgium aster is considered the eastern region of North America. It grows in dust, inverted pyramidal shape. Among the many varieties, the shrub is mainly medium, tall, and giant - 0.5-2 meters. By circumference, the dust spreads up to 80 cm. Aster New England looks great with small trees. Its flowers are 2-4 cm in diameter. The reed petals, sometimes in rows, are arranged in a ring above the tubular petals. A tight fit gives the impression of fullness. Stems are shiny or mottled, branching at the apex. Leaves are lanceolate, sessile, and green.

Depending on the variety, you can see the rainbow colors of huge bushes. Each plant has many bright inflorescences that can not fail to please the eye and cheer up. When it comes to attracting butterflies, any type of aster will do. New England chrysanthemums are prized for their full bloom late in the year, which wonderfully coincides with the monarch butterfly migration. In addition to monarch butterflies, this plant also attracts buckeyes, sledding birds, mountain maidens, pearl-crested birds, and spring nightingales.
