On
parts of the east and south coasts there are wide salt marshes,
covered by the high tides. Here the sea aster grows, often abundantly,
and presents a beautiful picture in late summer. It is about two
feet tall, with narrow, rather fleshy leaves, and flowers resembling
pale-blue Michaelmas daisies. Occasionally a variety will be found
in which the flower-head has only the yellow disk, and no ray
florets.
