Happy solstice to those who celebrate! For me it just means I can start the countdown to autumn because summer is my least favourite season. 😂

Anyway, these cute asters just popped up in my garden. Not something I planted and I don't know if it's an invasive weed or a friendly pollinator magnet, but I hope it's the latter. That one bee in the photo seems to enjoy it.

Spotted Knapweed that I spotted in Bear Swamp State forest near the south end of Skaneateles Lake.

The circular extent of a purple flower fills the center of the page,  but actually a set of long branching purple flowers extend from the central core.  The background is blurred which is mostly green stems and stuff but small purple flowers are visible in the upper left and lower right.

The asters are still going - these little tiny ones lined the trail head. What a welcome to a hike!

“Creatively acquired” slash rescued some New England asters to add to my pollinator bed.

Photo of several tall stems with delicate purple flowers at the top. The plants have clearly been dug up from somewhere and are currently in a blue Lowes bucket.Closeups of the flowers showing long pale purple petals around an orange center.

Big clusters of aster plants, all in bloom and covered with tons of flowers. Some white ones are closest to us, with some blue ones further away in the shade. There are some other trees and bushes, too, but the asters dominate.Closeup of some white asters. They have long thin white petals, and some of them have pink centers and some have yellow centers.

Beautiful evening! Summer weather and autumn colours! Got to explore a little single track that was lined with asters. Finding new (to me) urban trails is pure joy. Beautiful trail, beautiful run.

White panicle asters backlit by the morning sun. Lots of small flowers with white petals and yellow centers. A piece of vegetation close to the camera creates a blur of green bokeh in the lower right of the frameCommon blue wood asters in the gentle morning sun. The petals are very pale blue, almost white. Some have yellow centers and some have pink centers

Sun is shining, the asters are buzzing with bees, bumble bees and flys, butterfly and some other creatures that live in our garden.
Its too warm for this time of the year (19°C in middle Germany), but its like a natural meditation center ... my wife and I or we alone enjoy this part of the garden quiet often.

Photo from October a couple years ago, from a random garden I encountered #NotMyGarden #Asters #BloomScrolling #Flowers #Florespondence #Autumn

A densely growing patch of small purple asters with little yellow centers. The flowers fill the whole frame in great profusion. They have narrow, somewhat short purple ray flowers around the small centers.

Native showy fleabane (Erigeron speciodus) growing in my Portland, Oregon garden.

This aster is native to much of western North America, including Oregon and Washington state. Native bumblebees really like these flowers.

Find Joy Where You Can
It’s a day for a cheerful flower post, though admittedly out of season. Let this little patch of wild asters that have braved the odds to flourish at the edge of a parking lot be one spot of joy in your day, wherever you are, my friends. Why the car tire in the shot? Doesn’t… see the full post here:

Several pale mauve, pink and white asters are in the forefront of the photo, with out-of-focus ones behind. In the background is the wheel of a parked car.
