Stokesia 'Purple Parasols' PP10660

Common Name: Stokes' Aster

An enchanting selection with flowers that start out light blue, then transition through various shades of blue, ending with deep violet-purple. They are wonderful in fresh bouquets. The deep green foliage is neatly mounding.

Stokesia is a native North American wildflower. It has been grown for many years for its beautiful flowers and ease of culture. Because of its heat tolerance, it is widely grown in the south. Blooming from midsummer to early fall (if deadheaded), it is a tremendous accent to yellow, pink, or white mums and other late bloomers.
