Aster Island ‘Bahamas’
Aster Island 'Bahamas' offers deep hot pink flowers with bright yellow centres.
Aster ‘Bahamas’ comes to us from the Island series with great garden and pot performance. It is a prolific bloomer in the late summer garden when little else is in bloom. The bountiful blooms are medium-sized and semi-double with deep hot pink ray florets with bright yellow centres covering the rounded mounds to 24 inches high and 18 inches wide. Use as accents or mass plantings at the front of the border, or in mixed containers. Pollinator attractor. Deer resistant.
