One of the most uniquely colored asters we've ever seen. A captivating color reminiscent of a silvery full moon . This lavender-taupe beauty has subtle metallic highlights that add an extra dimension to bouquets. Each plant can have up to a dozen stems topped with ruffled blooms. The petals are gently curved, and the blooms hold up well in both the garden and the vase.
