Tiger Paw Aster Seeds

Stunning cut flower in bold hues of purple, pink, and white. This flower has a long, involved name that reflects its long, involved journey from Asia to your garden. Let's break it down. The Latin shows that this is not a true aster but a flower originally from China. Tiger Paw represents the claw-like incurving quilled petals, and suggests the White Tiger constellation in Chinese astrology that symbolizes the west and autumn. Result: this flower crossed the seas from east to west to bring its tiger claw petals to your late summer and fall garden. Let it roar! Makes a great cut flower. Blooms reach 24" in height and 4" in diameter at maturity.
