Eurybia schreberi
Shreber's wood-aster
Shreber's wood aster is commonly mistaken for bigleaf aster; it too forms thick ground-covering clumps of foliage in the early season along woodland edges, putting out flowering stems in late summer and early fall. It is differentiated from E. macrophylla by the minute glands borne on stipes on the flowers' involucral bracts-- a fun ID project for the dedicated field botanist!
