Narrowleaf Silky Golden Aster

Pityopsis graminifolia

Soft, yellow, daisy-like flowers atop silvery-haired leaves and stems create an outstanding visual effect in a fall garden bed, especially when other perennials are played against the silvery-white foliage color. Tough and evergreen.

Cut back old foliage in spring as the new growth emerges. The narrowleaf silky golden aster attracts butterflies.

The Virginia Living Museum staff will begin setting up for an after hours event around 3PM on the main floor.

This should not interfere with your experience and we will not be closing early.
