Dark Beauty Alpine Aster has masses of beautiful violet daisy flowers with yellow eyes at the ends of the stems from late spring to early summer, which are most effective when planted in groupings. Its narrow leaves remain dark green in colour throughout the season.
Dark Beauty Alpine Aster is a dense herbaceous perennial with a ground-hugging habit of growth. Its relatively fine texture sets it apart from other garden plants with less refined foliage. This is a relatively low maintenance plant, and is best cleaned up in early spring before it resumes active growth for the season. It is a good choice for attracting butterflies to your yard.
Dark Beauty Alpine Aster will grow to be about 10 inches tall at maturity, with a spread of 18 inches. Its foliage tends to remain low and dense right to the ground. This plant does best in full sun to partial shade. It prefers to grow in average to dry locations, and dislikes excessive moisture. Dark Beauty Alpine Aster is a fine choice for the garden, but it is also a good selection for planting in outdoor pots and containers.
