    Hi, I photographed this plant in my yard in Boston in August of last year. Many of the leaves had leaf miner damage. Unlikely that it was planted here. Thanks for your help.

    Answer

    Dear sicloot, the images are very small, so I cannot see things as well as I would like to. Keeping that in mind, your plant may be Symphyotrichum cordifolium (heart-leaved American-aster). If you are able to supply larger images, I could likely help you further. Best wishes.
