Question
Hello, I hope it's OK to ask more than one question a day. Could this possibly be narrow-leaved fireweed? Sorry for the poor photos; I have an inpatient dog with me most times... It's growing in the middle of a path toward the entrance of the park, so it's probably been stepped on repeatedly, stunting growth, maybe? Leaves have teeth. Thanks for any suggestions you may have.

Answer
Dear sldz22, good morning. It does not look like narrow-leaved fireweed to me. While I'm not certain who you have photographed, it looks most like a species of American-aster with narrow leaf blades. Best wishes.
