Once established, it asks for very little care while returning year after year with increasing vigor. It combines especially well with ornamental grasses, goldenrods, penstemons, and other late-blooming natives, extending seasonal interest well into autumn.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Native Utah Plants","offers":[{"title":"1 plant - 1 gallon pot","offer_id":53606907281715,"sku":"CVNP Symphyotrichum laeve #1","price":15.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0930\/6308\/6387\/files\/Symphyotrichum_laeve_96575691.jpg?v=1783228774","url":"https:\/\/utahplants.com\/products\/smooth-blue-aster","provider":"Native Utah Plants","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
