Symphyotrichum subspicatum (Douglas Aster) (1 gal)
PNW prairie and shoreline native, Douglas Aster is an important butterfly/pollinator species that features stunning pinkish/purple miniature daisy-like flowers bloom late into the summer.
Douglas Aster can fill many niches in sunny to part-shade landscapes, including adding perennial color in late summer until frost in Zone 1 of a rain garden — it can handle winter saturation and still be drought tolerant in summer.
It’s best in full sun with well-draining soils, and can grow 20-30 in. tall, spreading by underground rhizomes to create a small cluster over time.
