It is commonly said here that Fall begins when the purple asters and the chamisa begin to bloom. Both are beginning to bloom, the purple asters a little ahead of the chamisa. The coyote gourd is starting to ripen, and the vines are withering. Sure signs of fall. That, and the leaves on my neighbor's ash tree are changing colors, as well as those in the park across the street.

On this morning's hike, I noticed the first of the asters blooming near Supper Rock. Not many down here, so they really show.
Also lots of Muhlenbergia porteri...had to continue with your cactus idea on my blog!
