-almost no watering and I added a moisture dome to keep from drying and retain heat

My first year trying out Symphyotrichum novae-angliae (New England Aster) and I’ve learned a lot about it.

Can handle shade better then I expected
Fairly leggy
More of a bush then your typical flowering perennial like coneflower or allium
Handles pruning very well
Minimal care (I have never hand watered it)
Excellent blooms and later season pollinator benefits

Without them there would be no seeds and food to keep all our scavenging friends warm and active in the colder months of the year.
