A shade- and drought-tolerant species that is much rarer in horticulture than other similar members of the genus, wavy-leaf aster is well worth adding to informal borders and pollinator plantings. Here we offer a white-flowered form selected and raised here at the nursery. These plants originated from wild-collected Rhode Island seed. 3.5-inch pots. Zone 4. Photo: Matt Schultz
