Fanny Aster

I have had this lovely late blooming Aster oblongifolius 'Fanny', 
from Plant Delights Nursery, for several years and moved pieces of it around the garden.

Here with a hypertufa staddle stone.
The originals made from stone were used in England
 to support graneries and other food storage
structures to keep vermin out.
The ancient stone ones are very sort after &
can cost several hundred British pounds.
There have been cases of them being stolen,
from old gardens,  such is their value.
My advice, make your own of hypertufa
much lighter and easy to move around.
Probably not much chance of it walking away!
