Specimen #25 White Heath Aster
Aster ericoides
Symphyotrichum ericoides (L.) G.L. Nesom var. ericoides
Photo by me, Fairmeadows Park
This is in bloom now. I am including a photo of the unopened flowers to show the growth habit and leaves.
You can find this flower in many places in Iowa. Again, the name comes from the Greek 'astro.' And of course, 'geo' means 'earth.'
