Key Features
This compact aster produces abundant purple blooms that create spectacular color impact during the late summer and fall months when many other perennials have finished flowering.

Versatile Garden Applications
The 'Prof. Anton Kippenberg' aster excels in multiple garden settings.

The compact size makes this variety particularly suitable for small gardens and urban spaces.
