| Could be some sort of Felicia. There are a couple different species and I don't know which one yours is. http://davesgarden.com/guides/pf/adv_search.php?searcher[com... |

| Are these in your garden now, flowerprincess? They look a bit like some of my bigger asters, but asters are more shrubby I suppose.

| Look like some form of Aster to me also, there are all different types of them and sizes too, but there again, you dont really give a description of leaf, sizes or when they flowered, Asters are a late flowering plant, normally towards the end of summer, if no one else gets back to you, then come back with maybe a leaf shape etc to try help you further, good luck.

| I'm just getting ready to order seeds for greenhouse this year, and ran across a pic of these blue flowers.
They do look like asters don't they.

| I don't know about that! LOL I've grown these, that's why I recognized them. And I thought they looked too true blue to be asters, asters are usually more of a lavender-blue color. |

| HI,
Not the same thing, but very close, in picture at least. Also it is a perennial from zones
4-10. Not in production now, but I always add to my wishlist and they let me know when it is. Just another option.

| Erigeron speciosus does not have flowers that shade of blue, and it has a lot more of much narrower petals. There are some pictures in the Plant Files entry for it so you can see the difference between it and this plant: http://davesgarden.com/guides/pf/go/2417/ |

| My mother has those in here garden. They spread like crazy. We have to pull dozens of them out every year and their roots go clear over to the main plant! I quite like them. If I had my way I'd just let them grow. :D |
