Product Description

Stokesialaevis’Elf’ PPAF (30)ct Flat Common Name: Stokes’ Aster. Zone: 5 to 10. Full sun tolerates filtered sunlight. Height: 8 inches tall, spread 5 inches. Herbaceous perennial.

Dwarf, very short and compact Stokesia measures just 8 inches tall. From midsummer to early fall, 2 to 2 1/2 inch lavender blue flowers with a lighter, domed center are produced just above the tight mound of foliage. It is very floriferous and blooms over a long period.

Stokes’ Asters are easy to grown in average, medium, well-drained soil. Prefers moist, sandy, acidic soil, but is somewhat drought and heat tolerant. Adaptable to dry or moist soil, Stokes’ Asters cannot tolerate standing in water. Wet soil in winter is its main cause of death. Once flowering is finished, cut back the basal foliage for fresh new growth. Winter mulch is recommended in zone 5.

Stokesia is a native North American willower. A favorite for its ease of culture, it is also one of the most attractive late-flowering perennials, plus cut flowers hold for a week or more. Attracts butterflies. Deer and Rabbit resistant.

Attributes: Border plants, Containers, Cut flower, Drought Tolerant, Mass Planting, Easy to grow.

Thirty (30) plants per flat (or tray). Approximate Plug Measurements: 3 inches deep x 2 inches wide.
