Shipping Notice: Due to increased customer demand, please allow approximately 3 weeks for order processing and shipping. We are working hard to fulfill orders as quickly and carefully as possible.
Boltonias are great plants for adding color to the garden in the fall. Related to Asters, they are covered with 3/4" aster-like white flowers. The green-gray leaves are ornamental too. This clumping perennial slowly spreads by rhizomes (not aggressively).
It attracts many insects and monarch butterflies, makes a very good cut flower, and is a deer-resistant plant.
