Aster

 Stepping on to the lot in september this aster was blooming on the excavated gravelly strip close to the road. Many plants were growing there, many native ones, but probably as many introduced species. I have no idea if this aster is native, i do not even know which genus it is in.

Ceanothus sanguineus

Ceanothus sanguineus

Gifts of the Land by Lilwat nation talks aboutQwexmaoz snowbush or snowbrush which is Ceanothus  velutinus. The Liwat people used the leaves and flowers of C. velutinus for tea

and i read at  PNW The foam is good for cleaning dirt but does not remove oil; so it will not dry skin.  The flowers, especially, were nice for use as a body soap because of their pleasant perfume

 What a beautiful plant to have in a native plants garden. I need help to figure out which species it is.

Trailing Blackberry

 Rubus ursinus

I did not find this one on the lot, but someone did find it on the way up the hill, https://inaturalist.ca/observations/76421444 before the turnoff to mosquito lake. As  we all love berries, i wanted to include this one,  as one to look for. If it is there it will be sprawling on the ground.
