Lowrie's Blue Wood Aster

Asteraceae

CAYUGA FLORA (1926) NOTES: Dry fields, roadsides, thickets, and the borders of woods, in light noncalcareous soils, rarely in clay gravels or in pure clay; frequent. Aug. 15-Sept. Dry Run, Spencer; top of North Spencer Hill; Cascadilla Glen; Beebe Lake; Renwick slope ; Chickaree Woods, formerly ; Ringwood. Conn, to Ont., southw. to N. C. ; rare on the Coastal Plain. Plants with the leaves broader and more incised than in the typical form occur on the Renwick slope. They are occasional only, and do not agree exactly with var. incisus Porter. A. Lowrieanus and its variety have the appearance of hybrids between A. cordifolius and A. laevis, which quite possibly is their true status.
