Asters

Traditional September gift flowers are a hardy family of flowers that include white and purple daisy-like flowers.

You may have heard of New England Asters, a favorite pollinator plant. These perennials are also a hardy addition to any garden because once they start blooming, they bloom until frost.

Fall-blooming asters symbolize a strong and powerful love. They also indicate faith and wisdom.
