When summer says goodbye, ‘Grape Crush’ New England Aster steals the spotlight with deep violet blooms that shimmer in autumn light. Its early fall flowering brings a much-needed splash of color to fading borders—and crucial sustenance to migrating butterflies and late-season bees.
This perennial nativar forms a robust, bushy mound 26–30 inches tall, with richly pigmented flowers set against dark green foliage. It’s perfect for naturalistic plantings, rain gardens, or adding vibrant contrast to classic autumn tones.
Low-maintenance and salt-tolerant, ‘Grape Crush’ delivers both visual drama and ecological value. Plant it where its late show can shine—and where pollinators can toast the season’s grand finale.
As soon as your order is placed you will receive a confirmation email. You will receive a second email the day your order ships telling you how it has been sent. Some perennials are shipped as potted plants, some as perennial roots packed in peat. The ‘Plant Information’ section describes how that item will ship. All perennials and fall-planted bulbs are packaged to withstand shipping and are fully-guaranteed. Please open upon receipt and follow the instructions included.
Perennials and fall-planted bulbs are shipped at the proper planting time for your Growing Zone. Perennial and fall-planted bulb orders will arrive separately from seeds. If your order requires more than one shipment and all items are shipping to the same address, there is no additional shipping charge. See our shipping information page for approximate ship dates and more detailed information. If you have any questions, please call Customer Service at (802) 227-7200 or contact us by email or chat.
