Deep-Summer Asters

In the course of going from place to place making my usual rounds today, I ran across these fine examples of the deep-summer members of the Aster family in full bloom. From the top - Purple Coneflowers (and did you know that these are the Echinacea touted as a cold cure in herbal remedies?); Purple Coneflowers and Jerusalem Artichoke; and Black-eyed Susans. Yup, it's July alright!
