Description
An autumn flowering, winter dormant perennial. A delightful little plant, essentially a variegated Aster. The lightly incised, lance shaped leaves, starting lime yellow, with a central green splash, and fading slowly to all green, clothe the much branched, wirey stems. Billowy masses of small, blue, daisy flowers are borne for an extended period in autumn, while the attractive foliage provides colour from spring onwards. A good ground cover, slowly forming colonies.Cut back to ground level in winter.
