RE: Heath Aster

I believe that heath aster, Aster ericoides, is a species that shows up late
in restorations. The seed tends to have very low viability. The species
seems to spread its self vegetatively for the most part. You may be noticing
that it is growing in patches and not one plant here and another way over
there.

How does Heath Aster evolve in the maturing of a Prairie Restoration?  I
have an
area that has alot of it showing up now in a 4 year old restoration area.
Will
it diminish over time?  This area has few grasses in it...
Would anyone suggest mowing it now or just a spring burn?
thank you
