Asters and Goldenrods – the Garden Superfoods

Asters and goldenrods provide some of the most important fall nutrition for pollinators and especially butterflies.

Asters are generally care-free and easy to grow perennials.  There are asters for sun and for shade. If you plant asters, the butterflies in your area will surely visit.  They provide color and nectar long past frost.  Here are copies of the signs for the asters we typically have in stock.  Consider planting one in your garden today!

 

Goldenrods provide bright color well past frost and do not cause allergies.  Really!  They don’t.  Their pollen is sticky and is spread from flower to flower by bees and insects.  It doesn’t float in the air.  Hayfever is caused by ragweed.  Here are signs for the goldenrods we typically have in stock.  There are goldenrods for sun and goldenrods for shade.  Plant one in your garden today!
