| Symphotrichum oblongifolium just doesn't haven't the same ring to it. This stand of Fall-Blooming Asters was originally a single one gallon plant. I think I need more of these in my garden! |

Wildflower Wednesday is Gail of Clay and Limestone's once a month meme celebrating the natives in her garden and ours. Hike on over to her little piece of Nashville and join in the fun!

I have this aster, too. As you can see I still call them asters! It's a floppy plant, but, the bees adore it and I want the bees to be happy...Thanks for joining WW! xxoogail I am visualizing rain falling on your garden~
Happy WW Cindy! I hate the new asters name. Too hard.~~Dee
I have the cultivar 'October Skies', and it is tough, but your conditions are truly extreme. I hope you get some rain soon.
Our asters are all gone, so it's nice to see yours. Hope you get rain soon.
Very pretty -- and yes, always asters!
I'm trying to learn more botanical names, but I agree once an aster, always an aster! We finally got some rain this week; I hope the rain gods smile on you soon, too, Cindy.
Hoping the 2 asters I planted this year will grow to be as full and luscious as YOURS! They'll always be asters to ME, too.
Too funny!....I just posted an Aster for my Wildflower and now am looking at the other entries! Asters galore, but mine is a white one. :-)
I love your yard! David/ aka Mr. P.
I'll try to be by to visit some time in early November.
