Field notes: Aspen Daisy grows abundantly at lower elevations
in the mountains. They can be found in sunny locations in
clearings or along road sides... the problem is trying to identify
them. There are several varieties of Erigeron and Aster that look
quite similar. A good choice for the wildflower garden as Aspen
Daisy is very hardy and easy to grow.
