Native asters are big around these parts and are a welcome addition to the fall colors.
This
is a perennial that grows up to a couple of feet in height.
Branching-out, it also has a bushy appearance and each of the tiny
compound flowers are only about a half-inch across.
Seeds are distributed by wind and once established the plant continues to spread by rhizomes.
It’s
been blooming-up a storm lately. This showy autumn native is quite
common around here and a wide variety of insects are attracted to the
flowers.
