@elizabeth1067 @dryopteris2 - Does this ID look correct to you? This is a rare species in our region, the identity of which has been questioned by outside experts. It grows on seasonally exposed shores of our largest river (Saint John, aka Woolastook) with S. tradescantii but looks distinctly different and appears to mature later as well. It is clearly different to my eye from any form of S. lateriflorum. We don't have other small white aster species here except for rare roadside introductions of S. pilosum, and I'm confident it isn't that species. Thanks for your opinions!

Plains Emerald...? -> ! At Nashville Conservation Reserve, Kleinberg ON. Habitat was a long-grass type area interspersed with rows of younger planted pines. Short appendages, yellow face, pattern and colour match. Basal plate match.

Edited: Sticky False Asphodel (Triantha glutinosa). I initially suggested Outside my experience: Possible Sedge Genus Carex?), moist sand beach, beside Lake Huron, Belanger Bay, Manitoulin Island, ON, June 9/07. Approximate location.
