Wrinkle-leaved goldenrod

Flat-top white aster

Swamp aster

American aster - still not sure which one

Nodding beggarticks - now I know where it gets the name

Devil's beggarticks

Burr-reed

Cardinal flower just won't give up. There's almost none left, but every week there is a little bit newly blooming:
