Aster novae-angliae ‘KICKIN Pink Chiffon’ is a bushy, compact New England Aster that produces a profusion of semi-double, daisy-like, pastel pink flowers with a golden button center, from late summer to mid-fall. The blooms are so abundant that they literally blanket the plant and cover the foliage of finely textured green leaves. Ideal to add a great splash of color in the late-season garden, this eye-catching beauty is terrific in containers or near the front to middle of the border. Easy to grow and long-lived, it does not require human intervention to maintain its neat habit.
