Description
Aster novi-belgii, commonly known as the New York aster, is a reliable, clump-forming perennial valued for its abundance of colourful, daisy-like flowers. Flowering from late summer into autumn, it provides vibrant seasonal colour when many garden plants begin to fade.
It thrives in full sun to partial shade and prefers fertile, well-drained soil with regular watering. Aster novi-belgii is easy to grow and low maintenance, making it suitable for borders, mixed beds, cottage gardens, and pollinator-friendly landscapes. Bees and butterflies are particularly attracted to its nectar-rich blooms.
Cut back after flowering to maintain a neat shape and encourage strong growth the following season.
