Terrific grouping of these aster blooms. They make a wonderful banner. I especially like the range of stages of development of the blooms' central discs.
Thank you all for your compliments, likes and acorns! The moderator flipped the image to show off the best flower--thank you! I'm having fun creating banners!
October Skies is another favorite plant, blooming when most everything else is done. Cal, you are correct--it has a bit of a lavender shade rather than true blue.
