With its unique blend of red and white shades and gorgeous, eye-catching shape, this flower is sure to brighten up any planting space. The Hi-No-Maru is similar to its sister variety, Blue Moon Aster, in that it features a large central red pompom surrounded by white petals. However, unlike the Blue Moon version, it adds an impressive 3 inch diameter across all of its blooms.
This low-maintenance annual boasts no shortage of benefits - besides being a great addition to any perennial flower bed or vase, they are also a great way to attract butterflies with their bright colors and fragrant petals. These plants reach around 20 inches in height and grow best when exposed to full sunlight. They thrive in warm climates, however if you find yourself with colder temperatures during winter you can always dig them up and store indoors until springtime arrives once more.
