Plants are dispatched in growing condition and may not be in full flower. If too tall to pack safely, we may cut them back — this helps them establish more quickly. Read our Mail Order FAQs.
Symphyotrichum 'Snow Flurry' is a prostrate, ground-hugging Michaelmas Daisy — unusually low-growing for the genus — that in early to mid-autumn becomes smothered in petite white daisy flowers, almost obscuring the mid-green foliage beneath.
An ideal choice for the front of a white border, the edge of a path, or a container, where its spreading habit softens hard edges and suppresses weeds. For contrast and height, combine it with taller Hylotelephium and Stipa tenuissima. It thrives in fertile, free-draining soil in full sun and becomes drought tolerant once established.
Height x Spread: 10cm x 50cm

Plant Notes
-
Care Guide:
Divide clumps every 3–4 years to maintain vigour — any time after flowering but spring is preferred. Cut back stems after flowering in autumn. Taller selections may require staking. Symphyotrichum novi-belgii cultivars benefit from good air circulation to help prevent mildew.

Good to Know:
Pollinator-friendly — the flowers attract bees and other pollinators; the central disc turns from yellow to brown once pollinated.
Vigorous and long-lived; clumps bulk up well over time.
Excellent as a cut -
