Seasonal appreciation

One of the nice things about autumn is the blooming of asters. This one is probably blue wood aster Symphyotrichum cordifolium. These look like rangy weeds all summer long, then burst out in lovely unkempt daisylike composite flowers.

I've been noticing these all over the place, too. They are rather nice, aren't they?

I love them! We've got these and the white ones (heart-leafed wood aster probably) all around our house. :)
