Aster 'Small Ness'
Aster 'Small Ness' is a superb, compact late-flowering perennial discovered by Dr Hugh McAllister at Ness Gardens. It forms a neat, dense mound of foliage that becomes completely covered in soft light pink flowers with red centres from early autumn.
Flowering from September through to November, it provides valuable late-season colour and is both drought tolerant and notably mildew resistant. Perfect for the front of borders, containers and low-maintenance planting, it thrives in full sun and well-drained soil while attracting bees and pollinators.
