These tiny flowers are Fleabane (Erigeron). They are in the composite family, like Sunflowers, Daisies, and Asters. Flowers in the composite family all have center disk florets, and the edge or petals, which are the ray florets. Florets are actually individual flowers.

Most often snow white petals with a yellow center, though sometimes the petals are pink, or pinkish-purple.

There are a surprising 173 species of Fleabane native to North America.

I love to see the flowers along the roadside as I climb my mountain. Some of the plants growing to 3 feet tall. But those petite flowers, just the perfect size to put in a dollhouse.
