Climbing Carolina aster (Ampelaster carolinianus) is a perennial vine that produces abundant pale purple to lavender flowers from late October into November, unfazed by frost. It grows 10–15 feet and attracts bees and butterflies well into fall. Provide a trellis, fence, or shrub for support. Do not prune in winter; wait until new growth appears in spring.
Most asters require frequent division. Fungal diseases: wilt, powdery mildew, botrytis.
