Aster 'Lady in Black' - First flower at last! (Aster lateriflorus (Lady in Black))

This is a beauty.....wine red young foliage, black stems and frothy flowers very late in the season.

How does it cope with the frost Karen?

I don't know yet Linda....I'll let you know! Mind you, there was frost earlier, so it's looking ok so far, but it is planted under a small tree, so it has shelter.
