Purple Dome Aster

12 years ago

I just ordered six Purple Dome Asters. I saw this plant at the Missouri Botanical Garden in 2011 and admired its compact shape and great flowering. This was September 28th - a great time for the Monarch migration. I'm going to give it a try this year and found it at these sites.

- American Meadows - $4.26 or six for $3.73 each.

- High Country Gardens Ã¯Â¿Â½ $8.49

- Eden Brothers Ã¯Â¿Â½ $7.50

-I ended up buying six plants from American Meadows for $30.24(includes shipping)

Great price for perennials! I've never seen American Meadows' website but will check it out. It has good reviews.
