Aspen Fleabane (Erigeron speciosus) is a cheerful, mountain-loving perennial that delivers months of color in the garden. Its lavender daisies with golden centers create a soft, meadow-like effect and attract bees, butterflies, and other pollinators all summer long. The plant forms tidy clumps and is just as at home along a pathway as it is naturalized in a wildflower garden.

This hardy native thrives in sunny, dry sites and is a reliable performer in poor soils, making it a great choice for low-water landscapes. It’s tough enough to handle deer browsing and mountain weather, yet brings a charming, cottage-garden feel to your space. Whether you’re looking to brighten a rock garden or add pollinator-friendly blooms to a mixed border, Aspen Fleabane delivers both beauty and resilience.
