Symphyotrichum, Blue Wood Aster, Heartleaf Aster 'Little Carlow' (Symphyotrichum cordifolium)
The heart of the flower starts a beautiful contrasting deep red-purple and gradually turns into a pale yellow with aging
This is my favorite one, I love its airy growing habit and the lovely blue with purple-red hearts, it's very popular with bees and hover flies
It's just starting off with an abundance of tiny promising buds...
In its full glory 8th October 2008
And I'm not the only one who's so fond of it :)
