Symphyotrichum lanceolatum

 

Panicled Aster is a versatile perennial wildflower recognized for its delicate clusters of small, white to pale lavender flowers with yellow centers. Blooming from late summer through fall, this species provides a vital nectar source for pollinators, including bees and butterflies. Its tall, branching stems and narrow, lance-shaped leaves make it a graceful addition to meadows, roadsides, and wetland edges. Tolerant of various soil conditions, Panicled Aster thrives in both sunny and partially shaded areas, contributing to late-season beauty and ecological diversity in naturalized landscapes.
