I'm native to NY state and Tompkins County, NY
I grow best in moist soils and woodland conditions
I'm called frost aster because my stems are covered with hairs which resemble frost.
I can spread aggressively with seeds and rhizomes, so I make a nice ground cover.
My seeds were collected in Arnot, NY (2022)
