This bush is my favorite thing I've ordered from here! Zone 5, the first year it didn't flower (expected), and this year it's covered in beautiful purple flowers! I haven't had to do anything to the bush yet, super easy and gorgeous

I bought this plant last Summer, I wasn't too impressed. This year it came out blazing! It put on a lot of growth, full of buds, beautiful color! Highly recommend this Aster for Summer color.

This is the most amazing variety of Stokesia I have found. Leaves stay beautiful, flowers are upright and long lasting. Even lasts through our August heat!
