Question
Could you please identify this aster. Its common on a site in Northbridge, MA. Height ranges to about 4 ft. Thank you.
Answer
Dear JMP, you look to have photographed Symphyotrichum pilosum (awl American-aster), a species with very narrow, involute-tipped involucral bracts. It usually has white rays and occurs most often in open habitats.
