Purple asters
Saw these purple and lavender asters last week in a Wallingford garden, planted for all to admire in the narrow strip at the road (which I think is called the verge). I haven’t grown asters very much, but may reconsider after seeing these.

And now I’ll stop spamming you with comments 🙂 !
I realized from your question, Bim, that it might not be clear that there are, in fact, both purple and lavender asters there. That would have been too long a title! But I have updated my text, and thank you.
I adore your book and treasure my memories of a trip to Peru many years ago. I will vote for your exquisite book!

Great and deep colors. This is beautiful!
