asters
Late fall flowers
Asters are flowering plants with daisy-like blooms, typically featuring ray petals surrounding a central disk.
They bloom in late summer and fall, often in shades of purple, pink, and white: The asters are finally blooming along the fence.
The name comes from the Greek word for star, describing the flower's radiating petals.
